A Christmas dessert before Blue Bell Peppermint Ice Cream was available!

Note on scalding milk: Scalding means to bring the milk almost to a boil -- slowly. Steam should rise from the milk and look frothy, but it should not boil or you can easily cross over into scorched milk which is most unpleasant. Scalding helps incorporate the ingredients.
