4 egg yolks ¼ cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon hot water 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla 4 egg whites ¼ teaspoon salt ¼ cup granulated sugar 1 cup all-purpose flour 2 tablespoon powdered sugar

*Tip:

Be sure to use dark rum because white rum is too harsh.

**Tip:

If you overbeat the whipping cream, stir in up to 1/4 cup additional whipping cream to bring it back to desired consistency.

Note:

Using freshly grated nutmeg will give a fresher, more pronounced flavor. Whole nutmeg also stores longer than purchased ground nutmeg.
