Eggnog Cream Recipes

Steps:

• In a microwave, melt 1-1/2 cups baking chips; stir until smooth. In a small bowl, cream butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add rum and vanilla. Beat in melted chips. Refrigerate, covered, 1 hour or until set., Shape mixture into 1-in. balls; place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate 2 hours or until firm and slightly dry to the touch., In a microwave, melt shortening and remaining baking chips; stir until smooth. Dip balls in mixture; allow excess to drip off. Return to baking sheet; if desired, sprinkle with nutmeg., Refrigerate 2 hours or until set. Store between layers of waxed paper in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the egg yolks and sugar until the yolks lighten in color and the sugar is completely dissolved. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, over high heat, combine the milk, heavy cream and nutmeg and bring just to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and gradually temper the hot mixture into the egg and sugar mixture. Then return everything to the pot and cook until the mixture reaches 160 degrees F. Remove from the heat, stir in the bourbon, pour into a medium mixing bowl, and set in the refrigerator. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator until it reaches a temperature of 40 degrees F, approximately 4 to 6 hours.
• Once chilled, process in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Serve as is for soft-serve, or place in an airtight container and put in the freezer for 2 to 4 hours for traditional ice cream.

Steps:

• Heat the milk in a saucepan over medium heat (Do not boil).
• In a mixing bowl, with an electric mixer, beat the eggs at medium speed, until they are thick and pale; gradually add in the sugar, beating well.
• Gradually stir about 1/4 of hot milk into egg mixture.
• Add egg mixture to remaining hot milk; stirring constantly.
• Cook over medium-low for 25-30 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and reaches 160°.
• Stir in bourbon, vanilla, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.
• Remove pan from heat; let cool.
• Cover and chill (up to two days).
• When ready to serve, beat whipping cream at medium speed until soft peaks form.
• Fold the whipped cream into the egg mixture.
• Sprinkle with additional nutmeg before serving.

Steps:

• Use a saucepan or stock pot large enough to hold 2 quarts.
• In saucepan, beat together the eggs and sugar until smooth.
• Stir in 2 cups milk.
• Cook over medium low heat, whisking or stirring frequently because as this mixture begins to get hot it will easily scorch to the bottom of the pan if you aren't careful.
• Cook until mixture is thick enough to coat a metal spoon and reaches 160° on a food thermometer.
• Remove from heat.
• Slowly add the 2 cups whipping cream or half& half while whisking together until smooth.
• Add vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg and combine until incorporated.
• At this point, you may taste test (carefully- it will still be very hot) and if it doesn't seem sweet enough for your taste, add extra sugar.
• I use a total of 3/4 cup sugar because we like it sweet.
• You may also add more nutmeg at this point if you like a strong nutmeg flavor.
• Pour into a pitcher or container.
• Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled- several hours or overnight.
• Serve garnished with your choice of toppings: whipped cream, chocolate curls, maraschino cherries, cinnamon sticks or peppermint sticks.
• Brandy, rum, whiskey or flavored liqueur's may be added before serving if desired.
• This recipe makes 6 cups Egg Nog.

Steps:

• Put the cream and advocaat in a bowl. Using an electric whisk, whip until thick but still soft. Serve with a holiday hotcake, or indeed any festive pudding.

Steps:

• In a blender, combine 1 quart ice cream, half-and-half, Bourbon, orange liqueur, and orange zest. Blend until smooth. To serve, pour into a punch bowl, scoop 1/2 quart ice cream on top, and sprinkle with nutmeg.

Steps:

• Mix eggnog, heavy cream, condensed milk, and vanilla in a large bowl. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions until it reaches "soft-serve" consistency. Transfer ice cream to a one- or two-quart lidded plastic container; cover surface with plastic wrap and seal. For best results, ice cream should ripen in the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Steps:

• To prepare the filling, in a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Add the egg yolks, milk, and eggnog and whisk until blended. Place the saucepan over medium heat, constantly whisking and scraping the sides until the mixture starts to bubble and thicken (be careful not to burn the cream). Once it has thickened, add the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Add the vanilla, nutmeg, and brandy, mixing well. Pour the cream mixture into a bowl and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour.
• Once the eggnog cream has cooled, remove it from the refrigerator. In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer on high speed, beat the heavy cream until it's stiff. Using a spatula, fold the whipped cream into the eggnog mixture until everything is blended smoothly. Pour the cream filling into the pie shell and place the pie shell in the refrigerator to set for at least 2 hours.
• When ready to serve, remove the pie from the refrigerator and evenly distribute the whipped cream across the top of the pie. If you choose, use a pastry bag to pipe the whipped cream or offset spatula to spread it to create a more finished look. Sprinkle the nutmeg over the whipped cream for decoration.
• Eggnog Cream Pie should be served cold. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie tin with nonstick spray.
• Add the gingersnap cookies and pecans to a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the sugar, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the melted butter, then mix until well incorporated.
• Transfer the cookie crumb mixture to the prepared pie tin, then use a flat-bottomed measuring cup or drinking glass to press evenly against the bottom and up the sides. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
• Bake the pie crust for 15 minutes, until golden brown and set. Remove from the oven and let cool while you make the filling.
• Make the filling: Add the sugar and cornstarch to a medium saucepan and whisk very well to remove any lumps. Gradually pour in the eggnog, whisking between additions, to prevent lumps. Whisk in the egg yolks, nutmeg, and salt. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the custard thickens to the consistency of pudding and starts to boil, 4-6 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the butter, brandy, and rum, if using, until smooth.
• Pour the custard over the cooled crust and cover the pie with plastic wrap, pressing directly against the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours, until completely set.
• Just before serving, make the whipped cream: In a medium bowl, whip the cream with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, 1-2 minutes. (Alternatively, use a whisk to whip the cream until soft peaks form, 2-3 minutes.) Add the powdered sugar and vanilla and whip until medium peaks form and the cream holds its shape, 1-2 minutes more; do not over whip.
• Dollop the whipped cream on top of the pie. Top with caramel syrup, gingersnap cookie crumbs, toasted pecan pieces, and nutmeg.
• Enjoy!
