Pour the quart of milk into an earthen bowl, stand in a warm place and allow to thicken. When the milk is quite thick, pour boiling water over it, put into a cheese cloth bag and let drain for 12 hours. Take 1 cup of this curd or cheese, mash through a fine sieve and put into a mixing bowl. Stir in the sweet cream, sugar, beaten egg yolks and melted butter; flavor with the nutmeg. Add the stiffly beaten egg whites. Line an earthen pudding dish with pastry and pour in the cheese custard and bake at 450-F, on the bottom of the oven, for 40 minutes. Serve at once.
