Tips:

For a richer eggnog flavor, use homemade eggnog or a high-quality store-bought brand.
To make the chocolate swirl, use a good quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate. Avoid using chocolate chips, as they will not melt as smoothly.
Be careful not to overbake the pie. The center should still be slightly jiggly when you take it out of the oven.
Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.
Garnish the pie with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or chopped nuts before serving.
