Holiday Eggnog
Traditional eggnog is a perfect way to begin a party while waiting for your guests to arrive. The bourbon may be omitted, if desired. Extra eggnog can be stored in the fridge for a few days.

INGREDIENTS
1 dozen large eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 liter bourbon (optional)
1 quart heavy cream
1 quart milk
Whipped cream
Ground nutmeg
Cinnamon sticks
 

METHOD

Separate eggs. In a large bowl with mixer at low speed, beat the egg yolks and 1 cup of the sugar until blended. At high speed, beat until thick and lemon-colored. Gradually beat in bourbon. Refrigerate until cold.

In a punch bowl, combine the egg-yolk mixture, cream and milk. In a large bowl with mixer at high speed, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the remaining 1/2 cup sugar until stiff peaks form. With a wire whisk, stir the egg whites into the yolk mixture. Top with whipped cream, a sprinkle of nutmeg, and serve with cinnamon sticks.
