Ingredients

Directions

Beat egg whites and salt untl frothy. Gradually beat in 1/3 cup/75 mL of sugar; continue beating until stiff and shiny.

Beat egg yolks, until light. Gradually add remaining sugar, beating until thick and lemon colored. While beating constantly, slowly add light cream and rum (or cognac).

Whip whipping cream until it forms soft peaks. Gently fold whipped cream and egg white mixture into egg-cream mixture.

Chill thoroughly. Serve sprinkled with freshly grated nutmeg.
