Those were the days - we really lived on the edge, raw yolks and all. It does sound wonderful.
Shirley B. Feb 6, 2013, 10:54am UTC
I wondered about that too!
Susan G. Feb 6, 2013, 5:45pm UTC
There's a chance that the scalded half and half would still have enough heat to melt the chips and cook the yolks. Still, back in those days we ate things which included raw eggs and mothers let their kids lick the beaters when they were baking.

I certainly remember those days... and I don't remember ever getting sick from it. Loved cleaning out that bowl!
