I have long used this recipe as "the best"
This makes a "nip" for two, and can be expanded to accomodate any crowd.

Ingredients:
3 eggs, separated
6 tbsp. sugar
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup liquor
Nutmeg

Cream together the egg yolks and sugar.
Mix in the liquor (I use 2/3 good bourbon and 1/3 good dark rum.
Mix well to be sure the sugar is dissolved.
Beat the egg white to light peaks.
Beat the cream to lightly thicken.
Fold all together, with a sprinkle of powdered nutmeg.
Decorate top with a little more nutmeg.

Yum !!
