BUTTERSCOTCH SCOTCH EGGNOG
In this recipe, the smoky Scotch makes the eggnog more complex and gives it a savory taste, which goes nicely with the caramelized flavor of the brown sugar. If you're wary of using raw eggs, here's a version with a cooked custard base.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the yolks, brown sugar, vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using an electric mixer beat on medium-high speed until thick and dark golden, about 3 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and slowly drizzle in the milk, Scotch and brandy. Transfer to the freezer to chill while preparing the rest of the eggnog. (Or refrigerate for at least 2 hours before completing.)
- In a medium bowl, whip the cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Set aside. In another medium bowl, using clean beaters, whip the egg whites and pinch of salt on medium-high speed, adding the sugar by tablespoons until soft peaks form.
- When ready to serve, pour the yolk mixture into a large punchbowl. Fold in a small amount of whipped cream to lighten it, then fold in the remaining cream. Fold in the egg whites. Generously dust the top with nutmeg; serve immediately.

Steps:
- Heat the milk to a slow boil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. While waiting for the milk to heat, in a large bowl, whisk the yolks and brown sugar until thick. When milk has reached a low boil, turn off the heat, and whisking constantly, slowly pour the milk into the yolks mixture until fully incorporated. Whisk in the salt.
- Return the mixture to the pot and turn up the heat to medium. Cook, stirring constantly, with a spatula or wooden spoon, scraping the bottom and sides of the pot, until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, 5 to 10 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl and allow to cool. Chill eggnog for at least an hour and up to 2 days.
- Just before serving, whip the cream until soft peaks form and fold it into the custard. Add the whiskey, brandy and vanilla. Garnish with nutmeg and serve.
BUTTERSCOTCH EGGNOG
I'm not a big fan of the "traditional egg nog" But when I had this butterscotch version it soon became a favorite and must have during the holidays. I searched Zaar and didn't see anything like this recipe. If you like Butterscotch Schnapps try this, you'll be thanking me ;) Serve to your guests and accept their compliments graciously!

Steps:
- Process raspberries in a food processor until smooth.
- Place milk, cream, eggs, sweetened condensed milk and schnapps into a blender and blend until smooth. Add raspberries and blend to combine. Strain to remove seed and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- To serve, pour eggnog into glasses and float a raspberry on top.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh eggs, milk, and cream will give your eggnog the best flavor. If you can, use organic ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeating the eggs will make your eggnog too thick and custardy. Beat them just until they are light and fluffy.
- Add the spices gradually: Start with a small amount of spices and add more to taste. You can always add more spices, but it's difficult to take them out.
- Chill the eggnog before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and will make the eggnog more refreshing.
- Serve the eggnog with your favorite toppings: Whipped cream, grated nutmeg, or cinnamon sticks are all classic garnishes for eggnog.
