Easy-to-make Spiked Eggnog for two

As with every year, the start of the Christmas season, in our house, was inaugurated with some Eggnog. 

Here is my recipe for a quick and easy-to-make Eggnog (makes 2 glasses)

2 eggs - seperated  
3 tblsp sugar
1 tsp vanilla
200ml of 35%cream
150ml of milk
100ml of Bourbon (can be replaced with dark rhum or mxed half and half)
Nutmeg
a little extra whipped cream to decorate

in Bowl #1, mix egg yolks, sugar, vanilla, milk and bourbon
in Bowl # 2, whip egg whites until stiff
in Bowl #3 (large bowl), whip cream until stiff

Then, fold contents of Bowl #2 into Bowl #1.  Do not overmix
Then, fold the contents of Bowl #1 into Bowl #3.  Do not overmix - the mixture should be thick and creamy.

Divide into tall glasses, top off with Whipped Cream and sprinkle with nutmeg. 

Enjoy!
