      Here is a recipe for a wonderfully thick eggnog:


      12 eggs, separated
      1 to 2 cups sugar (you decide how sweet to make it)
      1 to 2 cups brandy/cognac (you decide the strength)
      3 pints whipping cream
      whole nutmeg


  1) beat egg yolks and sugar until good and thick
     blend in brandy/cognac
     chill for a couple of hours

  2) whip eggs whites with a pinch of salt until standing peaks 

  3) whip cream until thick (without going too far!)

  4) fold egg yolk mixture into egg whites

  5) add whipped cream

  6) chill

  7) serve with grated whole nutmeg

  This comes from memory but I made some quite recently. I will
  check my recipe at home and post any necessary corrections.

                                        Merry Christmas
