Categories     Desserts

Time 3h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
20 gingersnap cookies
¼ cup pecan pieces
3 tablespoons sugar
¼ teaspoon McCormick® ground ginger
¼ teaspoon McCormick® nutmeg
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ stick unsalted butter, melted
½ cup sugar
¼ cup cornstarch
2 cups eggnog
6 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon McCormick® Ground Nutmeg
½ teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cubed
4 tablespoons brandy, optional
4 tablespoons rum, optional
2 cups heavy cream
⅓ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon McCormick® vanilla extract
caramel syrup
gingersnap cooky
pecan piece, toasted
McCormick® Ground Nutmeg

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie tin with nonstick spray.
  • Add the gingersnap cookies and pecans to a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the sugar, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the melted butter, then mix until well incorporated.
  • Transfer the cookie crumb mixture to the prepared pie tin, then use a flat-bottomed measuring cup or drinking glass to press evenly against the bottom and up the sides. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • Bake the pie crust for 15 minutes, until golden brown and set. Remove from the oven and let cool while you make the filling.
  • Make the filling: Add the sugar and cornstarch to a medium saucepan and whisk very well to remove any lumps. Gradually pour in the eggnog, whisking between additions, to prevent lumps. Whisk in the egg yolks, nutmeg, and salt. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the custard thickens to the consistency of pudding and starts to boil, 4-6 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the butter, brandy, and rum, if using, until smooth.
  • Pour the custard over the cooled crust and cover the pie with plastic wrap, pressing directly against the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours, until completely set.
  • Just before serving, make the whipped cream: In a medium bowl, whip the cream with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, 1-2 minutes. (Alternatively, use a whisk to whip the cream until soft peaks form, 2-3 minutes.) Add the powdered sugar and vanilla and whip until medium peaks form and the cream holds its shape, 1-2 minutes more; do not over whip.
  • Dollop the whipped cream on top of the pie. Top with caramel syrup, gingersnap cookie crumbs, toasted pecan pieces, and nutmeg.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: Use the freshest milk, cream, eggs, and spices you can find. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your eggnog cream.
  • Use a good quality vanilla extract: The vanilla extract is one of the key flavorings in eggnog cream, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a vanilla extract that is made with real vanilla beans.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs: When you're beating the eggs, do it just until they are light and fluffy. Overbeating the eggs will make the eggnog cream too thick and dense.
  • Temper the eggs: Tempering the eggs is a process of slowly warming them up before adding them to the hot milk and cream. This will help prevent the eggs from curdling.
  • Cook the eggnog cream over low heat: Cook the eggnog cream over low heat, stirring constantly, until it has thickened. This will help prevent the cream from curdling or scorching.
  • Chill the eggnog cream before serving: Once the eggnog cream has thickened, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Garnish the eggnog cream with whipped cream, grated nutmeg, or cinnamon sticks: This will add a festive touch to your eggnog cream and make it even more delicious.

Conclusion:

Eggnog cream is a delicious and festive holiday drink that is easy to make at home. With a few simple tips, you can make eggnog cream that is sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a special holiday treat, give eggnog cream a try. You won't be disappointed!
