I made this last year and my husband loved it.  He just asked for it again and said it was so good he really wanted it again this year.  I said no problem, as it is easy and deliciou.

I just made this and it was delicious I made the batter a few days ago but today was the first chance I had to make the drink I remember Tom and Jerrys Does anyone have a recipe for that batter?

Easy and delicious! In California, we used to be able to go to our local Longs Drugs to get an 8 oz. jar of Hot Buttered Rum Mix or Tom ‘n’ Jerry Mix. No more Longs, and no hot holiday drink mixes. Now, I’ve got at least one holiday memory made real! Thank you, Ree!
