Instructions

  1. 1 Beat sugar and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  2. 2 Beat egg whites in a separate large glass or metal mixing bowl until foamy; continue to beat until soft peaks form. (Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak.) Stir egg whites into egg yolk mixture. Stir in salt, mace, allspice, cloves, nutmeg, and cardamom.
  3. 3 To use the mixture, combine 1 cup hot milk and 1 ounce rum in a mug. Stir in 1 tablespoon Tom and Jerry mix.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place almonds and confectioners' sugar in the bowl of a food processor; process to a meal-like consistency, scraping down the sides and over the bottom of the bowl as needed. Don't overprocess it--at this point, the mixture should still be crumbly, not paste-like.
  2. 2 Add egg white and almond extract; process until it lumps together. If it remains crumbly, add more egg white, a few drops at a time.
  3. 3 Use a silicone spatula to remove almond paste from the food processor. It not using it right away, wrap it in waxed paper and store in an airtight container to use within a few hours. Or, place the wrapped almond paste in a freezer bag and freeze for up to six months.
