2. Cooking Directions

  1. In a very large bowl, beat egg yolks until thick and pale yellow. Gradually add sugar to yolks. With a wire whisk, beat in milk and 1 quart cream. Add bourbon, rum, and cognac, stirring constantly.
  2. Just before serving, beat egg whites until stiff. Fold into mixture. Whip remaining 1/2 quart heavy cream until stiff, and fold in. Sprinkle with nutmeg.

Yield: 26 servings

3. Still Hungry?

This eggnog's rich, cloudlike texture is produced by separating the eggs and beating the whites before adding them to the milk mixture. The eggnog base can be made one day in advance; just beat in the stiff egg whites and whipped cream just before serving.

  • The original receipe with the right amount of eggs.

    judy f - December 26, 2006 02:47:02 PM PST
    This receipe calls for 6 eggs. The original receipe is from Chef Henry Waller of the White House, several Presidents ago. Maybe Kennedy. The original had 1 cup of bourban 1/2 cup of Rum and 1/2 cup of brandy. If you put 3 cups of bourban no one will be able to stand after 1 cup!!

    Someone needs to "review" this recipe. Do-not think it can be made with "1 eggs"... as printed.
