Shuck the oysters, saving any liquid in the oyster.
Put your oysters with all their liquid into a saucepan; add the butter, salt, black pepper, mace, and bay leaves.
Bring to a simmer for 5 minutes. Add the cream and shake all well together while heating through.
Pour onto a plate or platter, grating a little fresh nutmeg on each oyster as it lies in the sauce.
