Egg nog anyone?
Hey all,
Just wanted to post some simple egg nog recipes. They are very interesting I must say. The chocolate egg nog is very delicious for those chocoholics out there. Enjoy!
Have a very Merry Christmas and be safe if your traveling!


-Serrena






No-egg nog

If you don't want to use eggs in your eggnog, pudding mix will do the trick.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 pkg instant vanilla pudding
  • 1 1/2 quarts milk
  • 2 1/2 tsp rum extract
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

PREPARATION:

Blend pudding mix and 2 cups of milk, following directions on pudding package. Chill for 5 minutes. Add the rum and nutmeg, then mix in the rest of the milk. Chill and serve.


Chocolate egg nog
An eggnog with a double-hit of chocolate, with Kahlua and chocolate milk

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate milk
  • 5 eggs
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup Kahlua (or strong coffee)
  • 1/2 cup dark rum
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinammon

PREPARATION:

Combine milk and chocolate milk in a saucepan and scald (do not boil). In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar together until thick. Add about 1/2 cup of the hot milk to the egg mixture and mix through. Then stir the egg mixture back into the hot milk, and place over low heat. Add whipping cream and Kahlua. Cook and stir until mixture thickens. Do not boil. Remove from heat and add rum and cinnamon. Let cool and refrigerate until chilled. Serve with a sprinkling of grated chocolate and nutmeg.

Diet egg nog
6 cups of skim milk

1 cup of Egg Beaters (or your favorite comparable product)

Sweetener to taste (Use the pink stuff, the blue stuff, the yellow stuff AND if you use the real stuff, be sure and measure carefully and remember to count those added calories! Real sugar will blow up anyone except ants when used in high quantities!)

2 teaspoons of real vanilla extract (Rub a little behind your ears and live a little!)

2 teaspoons of rum extract

Ground nutmeg and cinnamon (or you can use a bit of pumpkin pie spice)

Heat the milk, Egg Beaters and sweetener in the microwave on high until thickened, stirring every minute or so. You can also use your stove if you prefer. Remove from microwave or stovetop and stir in the remaining ingredients. Next, cover the mixture very tightly with plastic wrap and chill. Sprinkle with additional nutmeg and cinnamon if desired. You can even add a dollop of nonfat, sugarfree topping for an added treat!

This recipe for Holiday Egg Nog makes about six – eight ounce servings for about 100 calories each. Be sure and leave some out for Santa along with your plate of holiday lowfat cookies. As he'll be making lots of stops on Christmas Eve, he'll appreciate this light, non-fattening treat! Who knows, he may even leave some very special in your stocking!

Rompope
Almonds add a unique flavour to this easy egg nog recipe.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 egg yolks
  • 6 cups milk
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup whole almonds
  • Rum, if desired

PREPARATION:

Soak and peel almonds, then blend with a little milk until smooth. Bring milk to a boil, then add sugar and almond liquid. Stir until thickened. Remove from heat. Whip egg yolks with rum. Add the egg mixture to the milk mixture, slowly while stirring.

Great recipes. Especially like the chocolate one. For the diet egg nog, can I suggest that one use a vanilla pod (cut in half lengthwise, scrape out seeds and mix them in)? Not only is the taste better than extract, but the visual appearance of the seems is appealing and authentic.

Would you mind if I add one or two of the egg nog recipes to my recipe site (http://www.france-property-...)?
