It won't be the last. I was inspired to make this after catching a glimpse of the popular Tom and Jerry punch bowls and mugs from the 60s and before.

    Hand beat 9 egg whites until creamy and stiff. Then add 3/4 cup of dark brown sugar and continue to beat until fluffy.

    In a separate mixing bowl, beat yolks, vanilla, spices, sugar, and salt. Beat until well combined.
  • 3
    Fold yolks into egg whites.

    This can be stored in the refrigerator at this point.

    When ready to serve, heat milk in the stove, but do not scald.
