PUMPKIN EGGNOG
Steps:
- Prepare a bowl set into a large bowl filled with ice and water and set aside.
- Combine the condensed milk, cream, pumpkin puree and cloves in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Cook, whisking, until just below simmering. Place the egg yolks in a bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly add some of the warm cream mixture (about 1/4 cup) to the yolks, whisking constantly (this is called tempering and will prevent the yolks from curdling). Then, whisk the tempered egg yolk mixture into the saucepan. Remove from the heat and cool down by pouring the mixture into the prepared bowl. Stir occasionally, until completely cooled down.
- Place the mixture into a blender along with the sugar, bourbon and ice cubes. Blend until smooth. To serve, fill rocks glasses with ice and pour the eggnog over.

Steps:
- Note - if you wish to use rum, use 1 cup (235 mL) dark rum in place of the 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract.
- Mix together first 3 ingredients in a large heavy saucepan. Set aside.
- Whisk egg yolks; add to SPLENDA® Granulated mixture whisking until blended. Gradually whisk in milk.
- Cook over low heat, whisking constantly until the temperature reaches 175°, approximately (5 to 8 minutes). Remove from heat and whisk in half and half; cool.
- Cover and chill 3 hours or up to 3 days. Stir in rum or vanilla just before serving.
- 15 servings. Prep time : 20 minutes, cooking time: 5-10 minutes.
- Land O' Lakes Fat Free Half and Half.
- It looks and tastes like half and half, but it's made mostly of skim milk (and a little carrageenan for body) instead of half cream and half whole milk. That can revolutionize a typical Fettuccine Alfredo recipe, which could easily call for a quarter-cup (or more!) of heavy cream per serving, at the unsightly cost of 22 grams of fat, 14 of them saturated -- not including the butter or Parmesan cheese.
- With Fat Free Half and Half, those numbers drop to zero, but the flavor doesn't budge.
- You can also indulge in a tablespoon or two of Land O' Lakes for your coffee, macaroni and cheese, or mashed potatoes. You won't save as much because each tablespoon of whole milk or real half and half has only a gram or two of fat. But if you use two or three tablespoons per cup of coffee -- and drink two or three cups a day -- maybe a pint of Fat Free Half and Half belongs in your fridge.
Tips:
- For best flavor, use real pumpkin puree. You can make your own by roasting a pumpkin in the oven or buying canned pumpkin.
- If you don't have a blender, you can mash the pumpkin and spices together with a fork. However, using a blender will give you a smoother texture.
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk. You can also use almond milk or oat milk, but they will give you a thinner consistency.
- If you're using a sugar substitute, be sure to use one that doesn't have a bitter aftertaste. Stevia or monk fruit extract are good options.
- Serve your eggnog chilled or over ice. You can also garnish it with a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon.
Conclusion:
This sugar-free pumpkin eggnog is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy the holiday season. It's perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply enjoying at home with your family. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a festive and flavorful drink that everyone will love.
