Description

This Tom and Jerry batter recipe is a sweet, frothy vintage topping made with beaten raw eggs, sugar, vanilla, and warm spices for a festive favorite.

Ingredients

12 large eggs, separated, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 pounds confectioners' sugar
1 pound butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground allspice

Directions

1 Beat egg whites and salt in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Lift beater straight up: egg whites should form stiff peaks that hold their shape.
2 Beat egg yolks in a separate large bowl.
