Sack Posset
Take a pottle
of Cream, and boil in it a little whole Cinnamon, and three or
four flakes of Mace. To this proportion of Cream put in eighteen
yolks of eggs, and eight of the whites; a pint of Sack; beat
your eggs very well, and then mingle them with your Sack. Put
in three quarters of a pound of Sugar into the Wine and Eggs,
with a Nutmeg grated, and a little beaten Cinnamon; set the Bason
on the fire with the Wine and Eggs, and let it be hot. Then put
in the Cream boiling from the fire, pour it on high, but stir
it not; cover it with a dish, and when it is settlede, strew
on the top a little fine Sugar mingled with three grains of Ambergreece,
and one grain of Musk, and serve it up.
