2 minutes. Beat in eggs all at once,
stirring until smooth. Drop dough onto
ungreased baking sheet by scant 1/4 cupfuls,
placing puffs 3" apart.
Bake 30-40 minutes or until puffed & golden.

milk, rum, nutmeg & ginger until well blended,
1 minute. Add heavy cream; beat on high speed
until soft peaks form. Cover; chill a least
30 minutes.
