This is great to use up all that eggnog we bought for Christmas, that I said we didn't need!! Eggnog freezes well.
I'm sure this will be a good one. I might give it a try. I have quite a bit of egg nog in the freezer.

ReplyDeleteThat looks rather yum, did you have it with a cuppa made in a brown betty teapot xx
ReplyDeleteNo Brown Betty teapot here. We don't drink that much tea and it's usually the bag in the mug style. We drink far more coffee than tea.
DeleteHi Jan, That looks a delicious recipe! Great for using up egg nog too. Thanks for visiting my blog. We haven't got any major projects this visit but we have been cutting trees that have become very overgrown and when it rains we'll be indoors finishing the second bedroom. See you soon xx
