Yummy Homemade Eggnog

My dear Husband brought home a small container of eggnog last week. I don't think he had any idea how much I love eggnog, so it was a very pleasant surprise. We enjoyed it, but it was gone quickly. A couple days later, I thought of how I made homemade eggnog a couple of years ago at home for my family, and decided to dig out a recipe.

I made it tonight, and it was even so much better than the store-bought. Here is the recipe. It's soo good and yummy! :)

Eggnog

6 eggs
1 cup sugar
4 cups cream
4 cups milk (I just used 1/2 gallon of whole, raw milk)
1 Tablespoon vanilla
1/2 - 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Beat eggs and sugar together in large bowl for 10 minutes, or until very fluffy and sugar is completely desolved. Stir in cream, vanilla, and nutmeg. Then add milk. Chill for 1-2 hours before serving.

Enjoy!!
