Time 30m

Yield 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 large eggs, plus
2 egg yolks
10 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 cups whole milk
1/2 cup dark rum or 1/2 cup spiced rum (my favorite)

Steps:

  • Whisk eggs, yolks, sugar, and salt in heavy sauce pan (off heat).
  • Stir in milk, 1/2 cup at a time, blending well after each addition.
  • Heat slowly over lowest possible heat until custard registers 160 degrees on instant read thermometer, thickens, and coats back of spoon.
  • 25-30 minutes.
  • Pour custard through sieve into a large bowl.
  • stir in liquor, vanilla, grated nutmeg.
  • cover with plastic and refrigerate until well chilled.
  • Just before serving whip cream in medium bowl to very soft peaks and gently fold into custard mixture until incorporated.
  • Serve in chilled cups and garnish with nutmeg.

This eggnog is a bit too boozy for my taste. I would have preferred it to be a bit less strong.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my eggnog still didn't turn out right. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This eggnog is too thick for my taste. I would have preferred it to be a bit thinner.
