Batter

- Beat until stiff.
- Beat egg yolks until lemon colored (approximately 5-10 minutes).
- Fold yolks and whites together.
- Add spices: one half teaspoon cinnamon, one half teaspoon allspice, and one fourth teaspoon cloves. (Card notes “Meas. generously”).
To serve
- Use two heaping tablespoons or less of the Tom and Jerry batter per cup.
- Use warm/hot milk.
- Add one jigger (approximately 1.5 ounces) or so of brandy (the note says, “Jerry we like brandy better than liquor”).
- Sprinkle with nutmeg on top of all drinks.
