[Quail_Antwerp]

I plan on searching up some recipes. I looove eggnog, but I think I might be able to make it cheaper than buy it?

Sooo does anyone else here make eggnog?

Thanks!

This recipe can be made without or with the alcohol. You can leave out the brandy or rum and it is still delicious!

Egg Nog

12 eggs- separated
1 C. sugar

Beat egg yolks and sugar until thick. Slowly add 1 1/2 to 2 C. brandy or rum. Chill. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form.

To egg yolk mixture add:
3 C. milk
3 C. heavy cream or Half & Half
1 1/4 tsp nutmeg

Fold in egg whites. Chill.

Makes about a gallon.

If it contains no alcohol, is there alcohol free brandy or rum out there that I know nothing about???

DUH! I meant to say you can leave out the brandy or rum and it is still delicious! I have our church soup luncheon and packing chickens on the brain today!

I will edit my original post! Thanks for catching that, QA!

HAHAHA that's Ok. Thank you!

Now I just need my girls to pop some eggs out. Maybe I better go squeeze some hens...

Ok, here is an eggless version until the girls get busy.
Eggless eggnog
* 8 cups milk
* 1 (3 ounce) package jello instant vanilla pudding
* 1/2 cup sugar
* 2 teaspoons vanilla
* 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Directions
In large bowl, mix pudding with 1 cup milk.
When pudding is thick, add remaining ingredients, mix very well. Chill.

This is great for kids (raw egg concerns) or adults with compromised immune systems.
Oh and I have even added a dash of rum extract which was good also!

LOL Layers are always nice.

I did just go out to shut the girls in, and someone had popped out an egg..no squeezing from me either.

Don't want to lose track of this one like I did with the recipes using venison heart.
