Eggnog

prep 15 min
× 6
This makes a very lovely, rich eggnog (with or without the alcohol), but you'll definitely want a mixer for it!

1

  • 4
    eggs
In a mixer bowl, beat the egg yolks until the lighten in color. Set aside the whites for later.

2

  • 1/3 cup
    sugar (white)
  • 2 cups
    milk (whole)
  • 1 cup
    heavy cream
  • 3 oz
    bourbon
  • 1 tsp
    nutmeg (ground)
Turn the mixer on low, and gradually add the sugar while beating until it is fully dissolved. Stop the mixer and add the milk, cream, bourbon, and nutmeg. Stir well to combine.

3

  • 1 tbsp
    sugar (white)
Using a mixer, but with a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Gradually add the sugar while the mixer is still running until stiff peaks form.

4

Mix the two bowls together, stirring to combine them fully. Chill before serving.
