Eggnog

Ingredients
4 cups milk
5 whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2. In a large bowl, combine egg yolks and sugar. Whisk together until fluffy. Whisk hot milk mixture slowly into the eggs. Pour mixture into saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly for 3 minutes, or until thick. Do not allow mixture to boil. Strain to remove cloves, and let cool for about an hour.

Watch that it doesn’t scorch. Stir in 3 1/2 cups of milk and heat until very hot, but do not boil! Remove from heat and add vanilla. Divide between 4 mugs. Add the cream to the mugs of cocoa to cool it to drinking temperature.
*Add a candy-cane to each mug for peppermint hot cocoa, or add a cinnamon stick or two with the cocoa, sugar and salt to make Mexican hot cocoa (remove cinnamon stick before serving).

Those coasters are awesome. I have quite a few holiday favorites, but I’ve just come up with something that is fast becoming my number one. I’m totally addicted to the holiday coffees that come out this time of year at all the coffee shops, but it’s expensive to have one everyday. Instead I’ve started making my own eggnog latte.
1/2 cup brewed coffee
1 cup milk
1/2 cup eggnog
Put them all in a two cup measuring cup, pop in the micro for 3 minutes and viola, a homemade holiday coffee!
These coasters are really really cute !
These are darling. I would love these for the Christmas season!
oh they are so cute! I would love to use them in the holidays!
Love! I like to have tiramisu around Xmas. Home made by me of course!
Yum, eggnog! those coasters would make a great gift!

Now what’s that all about? Weird.
Anyhow, please enter me.
And now I’m off to bed. I have to sneak in and act like I’ve been there the whole time, it’s 1:30am. This blog has been bad for me today, ha!
Oh geez…I forgot the favorite holiday treat because I was so excited. Durrrr.
For me, it’s all things caramel. I make a killer caramel sauce each year, and then also I love to make caramel corn. This year I’m obsessed with dark chocolate and salted caramel. I’m trying to find a recipe of my own so that I can stop paying for it!

Love your coasters. I tried to make some a while back and then did not turn out as cute as yours!
I love these coasters. How cute. My favorite holiday treat to make is Peppermint Bark. It is super easy but adds just the right amount of festiveness to any event I have to go to. Plus it is so easy to dress up by changing the colors of the candy cane pieces or even making them in the shape of hearts using the little candy canes. I always get asked to make it so I must do something right.
Neat coasters! 🙂
