ELEGANT EGGNOG DESSERT
This impressive dessert has become so popular that I have to make three every year-one for my husband to take to work, one for our family on Christmas Eve and one for his family Christmas Day! Any flavor of Pirouette cookies can be used, and vanilla can be substituted for the rum flavoring. -Lisa Scanio, Tampa, Florida
