Shasha's super famous eggnog!

I LOVE this eggnog recipe. I got it from my grandmother, and I have no idea where she got it from. If I had to guess, I'd say her mom. :) In fact, I love this recipe so so much, I actually use cow milk in it. Most other things, I substitute almond or coconut milk. I don't mind having an upset tummy for this.

12 egg yolks

1 cup sugar

2 cups milk

1/2 tsp. salt

12 egg whites

2  cups whipping ceam

1 quart milk

nutmeg

 

In mixer bowl, beat egg yolks slightly; add sugar and beat

till thick and lemon-colored.  Slowly add the 2 cups milk,

beating constantly at low speed of electric mixer.  Chill

several hours.  Add salt to egg whites and beat till

almost stiff.  Whip cream till stiff.  Stir the 1 quart milk

into chilled egg yolk mixture.  Fold in egg whites; fold in

whipped cream.  Chill one hour.  Stir before serving;

sprinkle with nutmeg.

 

Makes a bout 30 five-ounce servings.

 

(I prefer sprinkling with cinnamon AND nutmeg -- your taste preference)

 

***As a precaution, I like to buy my eggs for this from a small farm. I get weirded out using uncooked supermarket eggs for this. Think of all the salmonella.... yum...
