Directions
Creamy Cooked Eggnog, If you worry about uncooked eggs in Egg Nog, as I do, you might like to try this recipe I found the original recipe on the American Egg Board website and have made a few changes to suit our tastes This is the best cooked Egg Nog I have ever tried and made this way, will be free from salmonella bacteria This recipe can be doubled easily Cooking time includes chilling time Edited to add: Always remember to use fresh eggs This eggnog will keep 4 days under refrigeration , First my tip: Each year I end up cooking a bit too warm, so before adding the whipping cream I run it thru a strainer, gets out the tiny pieces! Excellent recipe – had never made eggnog before, and really wasn’t a fan But I since I have chickens and fresh eggs, a cousin asked if I knew how to make it Nope, but I can find a recipe I tried one, and it was okay, so tried this one! It’s a HIT! So this is the 4th year that the request has been made for it (He’s already purchased several from the store, but swears this is the best!) And I’ve discovered I LOVE warm eggnog! Thanks!, how many days ahead of time can you make this egg nog/
