A delicious classic given to me by my Aunt-in-law last year. It was wonderful to have homemade egg nog for the first time, so I want to share the recipe. The trick is restraining yourself from making it all year long. Remember, with great power comes great responsibility. The recipe actually calls for a jigger of vanilla, but recipezaar didn't understand that term. Antiquated perhaps? Well, not if you are a bartender... Ingredients:
12 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
4 cups milk |
2 cups half-and-half cream |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 fluid ounce vanilla |
1 teaspoon nutmeg |
rum (optional) |
Directions:
1. Measure out all your ingredients ahead of time so they are ready to add in quick succession.
2. Crack eggs into a large mixing bowl.
3. Add sugar and begin beating the mixture.
4. Beat continuously while adding the remaining ingredients.
5. Add your desired quantity of Rum to the final mixture or to individual cups.
6. Happy Holidays!
