Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
The best eggnog ever...
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream, melted or defrosted to soft-serve stage
1 quart milk
1 egg (or up to 4 if you like a more eggy taste.)
Bailey's Irish Cream as desired
Grated nutmeg or cinnamon for garnish
Beat the egg in the milk, then on very low heat simmer on the stove until hot but not bubbling. Remove from heat. You have to stir this constantly, and be careful you don't end up with scrambled eggs in your drink. Ew! I do like that the egg is cooked in this recipe. Mix with ice cream, blending completely. Pour into mugs, leaving room for a shot of Bailey's for those who like it with a kick. Add Bailey's. Sprinkle very lightly with your choice of grated nutmeg or cinnamon. This may be served warm or chilled.
If this is a little too rich for you, you can add more milk, or use skim milk rather than whole.
Also, it's pretty with a maraschino cherry on top. :o)
Makes 3 quarts

Although this recipe is completely original as far as I know, I did borrow the idea of using ice cream from my Uncle Lynn. He brought the idea from an office Christmas party years ago and I'm afraid I can't give full credit to its original creator.
