http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0oGkmCilk5Fkk8Ao4JXNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTE3ZXJuNmpmBGNvbG8DdwRsA1dTMQRwb3MDMTQwBHNlYwNzcgR2dGlkA0RGMDVfNw--/SIG=12av8btnf/EXP=1162864674/**http%3a//www.texascooking.com/features/dec2004eggnog.htm

6 eggs
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3/4 cup brandy
1/3 cup dark rum (Captain Morgan for best flavor, but Myers is OK)
2 cups whipping cream
2 cups milk
All liquids should be very cold. Refrigerate in advance.
Beat the eggs for 2 or 3 minutes with an electric mixer at medium speed until very frothy. Gradually beat in the sugar, vanilla and nutmeg. Turn the mixer off and stir in the cold brandy, rum, whipping cream and milk Chill before serving. Sprinkle individual servings with more nutmeg. Makes about 2-1/2 quarts.

Rich and Creamy Eggnog
This recipe will make a punch bowl full of eggnog.

12 eggs, separated
1-1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 quart (4 cups) whole milk
1-1/2 quarts (6 cups heavy cream)
3 cups bourbon
1/2 cup dark rum
2 cups cognac
1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened
In a very large bowl, beat the egg yolks until thick and pale yellow. Gradually add the sugar and nutmeg, and beat until well mixed. Using a wire whisk, beat in the milk, 4 cups of the heavy cream, bourbon, rum and cognac. Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Before serving, beat the egg whites with 1/4 cup sugar until stiff, and fold into the egg mixture. Whip the remaining 2 cups of heavy cream, and fold into the egg mixture. Fold in the ice cream, gently stirring to combine all ingredients. Sprinkle individual servings with additional nutmeg.

Eggnog can be refrigerated; however, the cream will rise to the top. Stir the mixture gently to recombine before serving. The amount of liquor can be adjusted to taste.

Rompope
Rompope is strong, sweet and meant to be sipped, so small glasses are in order. Refrigerated, it will keep indefinitely. While not strictly traditional, many Mexican cooks believe ground almonds improve the texture and lend a delicate flavor to Rompope.

1 quart whole milk
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cinnamon stick
1/4 cup finely ground almonds or almond meal (optional)
12 egg yolks
2 cups light rum, or brandy
Combine the milk, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon stick (and ground almonds, if you are using them) in a large saucepan. Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly, for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, and cool to room temperature.
Beat the egg yolks until thick and lemony. Remove the cinnamon stick from the milk mixture, and gradually whisk the egg yolks into the milk mixture. Return to low heat and, stirring constantly, cook until mixture coats a spoon. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.

Add the rum or brandy to the mixture, stir well. Transfer to a container and and cover tightly. Refrigerate for 1 or 2 days before serving. Makes 1-1/2 quarts.

Whipped Eggnog

6 eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar, divided
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup light rum
1/2 cup bourbon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup heavy cream
ground nutmeg
Using an electric mixer, beat the egg yolks . Gradually add 1/2 cup of the sugar, beating at high speed, until thick and light in color. Stir in the milk, rum, bourbon, vanilla extract and salt. Chill for at least four hours or overnight.
Whip the cream, cover and refrigerate. Wash the beaters well, then whip the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.

Gently fold the whipped cream and whipped egg whites into the egg yolk mixture. Serve immediately. Sprinkle individual servings with ground nutmeg.

To make this eggnog non-alcoholic, omit the liquors and increase the milk to 3 cups.

Cooked Eggnog

6 eggs, well beaten
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 quart (4 cups) whole milk, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup dark or light rum (or liquor of your choice)
ground nutmeg
In a large saucepan, whisk together the eggs, sugar and salt. Stir in 2 cups of the milk, and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thinly coats the back of a metal spoon. An instant-read thermometer should read 160°F. Remove from heat, and stir in the remaining 2 cups milk, vanilla extract and rum. Cover and chill thoroughly, at least 4 hours or overnight. Sprinkle individual servings with nutmeg. Makes approximately 1-1/2 quarts or twelve 4-ounce servings.

3/4 cup cold whole milk
1 egg, well beaten
2 ounces chilled liquor (rum, bourbon, brandy)
1 rounded teaspoon confectioners sugar

To serve, pour into glasses and sprinkle nutmeg over each. Makes 8 servings.

Hold glasses high and make a toast to the warmth of holiday traditions and a happy new year.

I have used this recipe before and it was a real hit during one of my Christmas parties. Make sure that your eggs are the freshest you can buy. It really makes a difference.

Eggnog
Serves 26
This eggnog's rich, cloud like texture is produced by separating the eggs and beating the whites before adding them to the milk mixture. The eggnog base can be made one day in advance; just beat in the stiff egg whites and whipped cream just before serving.
12 eggs, separated
1 1/2 cups superfine sugar
1 quart whole milk
1 1/2 quarts heavy cream
3 cups bourbon
1/2 cup dark rum
2 cups cognac
Freshly grated nutmeg

1. In a very large bowl, beat egg yolks until thick and pale yellow. Gradually add sugar to yolks. With a wire whisk, beat in milk and 1 quart cream. Add bourbon, rum, and cognac, stirring constantly.
2. Just before serving, beat egg whites until stiff. Fold into mixture. Whip remaining 1/2 quart heavy cream until stiff, and fold in. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
Note: Raw eggs should not be used in food prepared for pregnant women, babies, young children, the elderly, or anyone whose health is compromised.

Plain yogurt and then wipe off. Also, crushed papaya is great because of the enzymes. Egg whites, whisk and let them dry and you're face is so soft. Mashed banana. For hands, if you have leftover coffee grounds, mix a tsp w/a little liquid soap. Your hands will be super soft. Don't forget moisturizer when you're done w/any of these treatments

Mix all ingredients well. You can also add whatever kind of booze you like. I like it as is or with a little amaretto.
