Fri, 20 December 2024

Classic Nutmeg and Cinnamon Eggnog
INGREDIENTS:
  • 6 large eggs
  • 110g granulated sugar
  • 500ml full-fat milk
  • 500ml heavy whipping cream
  • 10ml pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (less than 1 gram)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (less than 1 gram)
 
METHOD:
  • In large saucepan, beat together eggs and sugar. Stir in 2 cups milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly while touching the bottom of the pan, until it reaches 63°C and this temperature is held there for 3 1/2 minutes. At this stage, the mixture will be thick enough to coat a metal spoon. Remove from heat.
  • Stir in whipping cream, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, several hours or overnight.
  • Serve garnished with whipped cream and nutmeg.
  • Optionally, add a shot of brandy, bourbon whiskey, or light rum to your glass!
