List of Ingredients











Ingredients:
4 egg yolks
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup artificial sweetener
2 tablespoons artificial sweetener -- to taste

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon brandy extract
1 pinch salt
3/4 cup ice water
1 1/2 cups heavy cream





Recipe











How to Prepare:

Blend together egg yolks, 1 cup cream and 1/2 cup plus 2 tbls. sweetener.
Cook in a saucepan, stirring constantly with a spoon or spatula for 5-7 minutes. The egg yolk will start to curdle a little.
Put this mixture back in the blender and blend for a minute or so. It will get thick and creamy.

Blend it up until it's mixed well and pour into a refrigeratable (is that a word?) container.
In a separate bowl, beat 1 1/2 c. heavy cream until thick. Gently blend it into the egg mixture.
Mixing it too much will break it down and it won't be thick (I learned this from experience).
Add nutmeg to taste and refrigerate until chilled. The longer it is in the fridge, the less "eggy" it will taste.
It's pretty good for "fake" egg nog!
