Tom and Jerry!

This recipe is another family favoirte of mine.  We even had special mugs that were used ONLY for Tom and Jerry's.  Although my grandparents served it with Rum, I was very happy with they way this turned out without it!  I'm pretty sure that I LOVED the name too beacuse I thought it was named after the cartoon.  Hey, maybe it is!?!

TOM AND JERRY

12 egg(s)

1 cup sugar

Pinch of ground allspice

Pinch of ground cinnamon

Pinch of ground cloves

Pinch of ground nutmeg

1 or 2% milk

Separate the eggs into 2 different bowls. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until they become stiff.  Set aside. Add the sugar to the yolks and stir until they are water like.  Add a pinch each of ground allspice, cinnamon, and cloves to the yolk mixture. Fold the whites into the yolks. Put 1 tablespoon of the egg mixture in a coffee mug. Heat the milk to almost boiling or to your liking and fill to the top with the milk and stir until you get foam. Sprinkle nutmeg on top. Serve immediately!
