I have a confession. I’ve never had eggnog.
As a child I was totally grossed out about the idea of drinking anything creamy that wasn’t a milkshake. Then to find out there are raw eggs holding the nog together, made it a definite no-go.
I’ve heard mixed reviews about the traditional holiday drink and I am venturing to step out of my childhood fear and give it a go this year.
Searching the web, I ran across this recipe and though I’ll never commit to making it myself (unless my future hubby requests), my interest was piqued by this recipe from piggykins via recipe4living.com.
The marshmallow and Cool Whip on the ingredients list totally did it for me!
Here goes nothing:
