I made eggnog a couple days ago.
Sweetened heavy whipped cream with foamy whipped eggs and bourbon carefully folded in and nutmeg on top. Served in a crystal dessert glass, thick, sweet, wonderful.

How could anyone not like that?

1 pint heavy cream
2 eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar
nutmeg
bourbon

Whip the heavy cream until peaks form
In another bowl, beat egg whites until dry
In another bowl, beat yolks and sugar

With mixer on medium, mix yolks and sugar into the whipped cream, then beat in egg whites. Add about 3 shots of bourbon and quickly mix them in.

This will be very thick, creamy and delicious. Spoon into crystal dessert glasses, sprinkle with nutmeg, and serve.
