- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 cups eggnog
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1⁄4 tsp nutmeg
Number of Servings:
1 quart
Recipe Source:
Equipment
- Ice Cream Maker
Directions
- In a large saucepan, beat the eggs, milk and sugar until well blended.
- Cook the egg mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. It should smoothly coat the back of a wooden spoon. It will take about 20 minutes.
- Let the mixture cool.
- Add the eggnog, vanilla and nutmeg.
- Stir until blended and refrigerate the mixture until it is completely chilled, for several hours or up to overnight.
- Following the instructions of your ice cream maker, pour the chilled mixture into your machine and stir it until the ice cream forms. It will typically be more like soft-serve when you first make it.
Notes
- If you want firmer ice cream, transfer it to a sealed container and let it freeze for several hours until it hardens.
