Suggested in a 1959 book as a terrific beverage to serve at a New Years Day Open House party. I don't know why it was given the Southern designation.
Ingredients:
1 package vanilla pudding mix, the kind you cook
1/2 cup sugar
1 quart milk
3 egg yolks, slightly beaten
3 egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup whipping cream

Directions:
1. Combine pudding mix, sugar, and 1/4 cup of the milk in a 2-quart saucepan.
2. Add slighly beaten egg yolks and blend well.
3. Then add remaining milk; mix well.
4. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a full boil, about 10 minutes.

6. Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into cooled pudding mixture.
7. Add vanilla and brandy; then chill several hours.
8. Just before serving, whip the cream.
