EGGNOG RECIPES
~~~~~~~~~~~

Basic Non-alcoholic Eggnog
12 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 quart cream
to taste vanilla
dash of nutmeg

Seperate eggs at room temp. Beat yolks till creamed with about half of sugar, whites till peaked then add other half of sugar. Beat cream till stiff. Then fold all together.

Add vanilla to taste - but remember that a little bit of vanilla goes a long way.

Place into containers keep in refrigerator for at least one day. Shake before serving.
==================================
Orange Non-alcoholic Eggnog Float
4 eggs
6 tablespoons sugar
5 1/2 cups fresh orange juice, chilled
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 quart vanilla ice cream
1 quart ginger ale, chilled

Beat the eggs and the sugar until light (no separation necessary here). Stir in the orange and the lemon juice. Place small scoops of ice cream in the punch bowl. Pour

the ginger ale against the sides (inside, of course) of the bowl (this is done to preserve as much of the carbonation as possible). Add the orange juice picture slowly,

stirring gently. Serve immediately. This will make about 30 servings.
==================================
Eggless Eggnog
8 cups milk
1 3 oz package of French Vanilla Instant pudding
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp of nutmeg

In a large bowl, mix the pudding with 1 cup of the milk. When pudding is formed, add in the remaining ingredients and mix very well. Chill.
=====================================
Rich Eggnog! - Recipe 1

6 Large eggs
3/4 c Sugar
1 1/2 c Brandy
1/2 c Rum
4 c Milk
4 c Cream
1/2 c Icing sugar
Nutmeg to sprinkle

Separate the yolks from the whites of the eggs. Beat the yolks slowly while simultaneously adding the sugar; do this until the mixture is pale and golden. Now slowly

add in the brandy and rum, then beat in the milk and half the cream.

Set aside until just before serving, then whisk the egg whites until stiff and fold them into the eggnog mixture. Whip the remaining cream and icing sugar until thick. Top

each glass of eggnog with whipped cream and a shake of nutmeg. This yields eight servings.
============================
Eggnog! - Recipe 2

Basic Versatile Nog
6 seperated
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 quarts thick cream
1 1/4 tumblers whiskey, brandy or rum
Dashes of cinnamon or nutmeg

Beat egg yolks and sugar together until they are senseless (or lemon-colored). Set aside while you beat the egg-whites stiff followed by some harshly thrashed cream.

Dump all this into the yokes along with your choice of liquor. Then chill.
===================================
There are many variations possible on the recipes given, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla are spices that can be utilized in varying quantities. Different liquors can be used

in conjunction with eggnog, rum, brandy and whiskey are not the only possibilities.

===================================
Wassail (not a NOG but with egg)
Wassail was originally not a drink, but a practice of carroling. In Merry old England carrolers would bring a cup with them, and, as they sang before the homes of wealthy

citizens, their mugs would be filled with a hot spiced ale, often with a roasted apple slice floating in it.

This recipe is a variation on that ancient theme.

1 bottle burgundy or claret
6 eggs
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 cloves
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon mace
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups sugar

6 baked apples


Heat the bottle of red wine. Meanwhile separate the eggs. Beat the yokes and whites separately, then fold both together (egg whites should be stiff). Put spices in

water and heat for afew minutes to release flavor.

Now pour all into a punch bowl along with baked apples. Serve warm.

Sweetened Condensed Milk

Mix 1 c. Carnation or Pet milk with 2 c. sugar and cook slowly down. This will make the thick sweetened condensed milk used in recipes such as Cherry Cream Cheese Pie.

TOAST

1. Put bread into toaster.
2. Toast to taste.
3. Add butter to taste.

NOTES:

• The recipe above is for one slice of toast. If two slices are desired, double the recipe.
• You can change the amount of toasting done to your bread by moving the selector to a higher or lower setting. (This selector is found on the front of most toasters).
• You may also choose to add more toppings, such as jelly or sugar. Feel free to experiment!
• I have found it best to remove toast from toaster before applying butter, or at least unplug the toaster beforehand.

mmmmmm, toast!
