List of Ingredients




6 large eggs, separated
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup bourbon or blended whiskey
1/2 cup brandy
1 1/2 pints heavy cream
Freshly grated nutmeg



Recipe



Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until pale yellow. Add the bourbon (or whiskey) and the brandy and blend well. Chill in the fridge for several hours.

Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form and set aside. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until slightly thickened. Fold the cream into the chilled yolk mixture.

Fold in the egg whites and chill again. Serve with a sprinkling of grated nutmeg. Makes about 4 cups, enough for 8 to 10 servings.
