Christmas Spirit Eggnog
Ingredients:
4 cups milk
5 whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
12 egg yolks
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 cups light cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Instructions:
Place a large saucepan over very low heat. Put the cinnamon, 1/2
teaspoon of vanilla, cloves and milk in the saucepan. Heat milk about 5
minutes bringing to a boil very slowly. Whisk together egg yolks and
sugar in a large mixing bowl. Egg mixture should become
fluffy. Slowly whisk milk mixture into the eggs until blended
well. Place egg milk mixture back into the saucepan. Being
sure not to allow the mixture to boil and stirring continuously, cook
mixture over medium low heat for approximately 3 minutes or until
mixture thickens. Once the mixture thickens remove cloves.
Let mixture set and cool for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Once mixture
has cooled stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla, cream and nutmeg.
Blend well. Cover and refrigerate overnight. When ready to
serve sprinkle nutmeg over the top.
