Ingredients
- 1 vanilla bean
- 3 cups milk
- 1 cup half and half
- 2 cinnamon whole sticks
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 6 egg yolk
- 1 cup sugar divided
- ¾ cup bourbon
- 1 pint coffee ice cream
- 1 pint chocolate ice cream
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- Peppermint crushed; and peppermint sticks for serving
Instructions
- Use a small, sharp knife to split the vanilla bean and scrape the seeds from the inside. Add the bean, seeds, milk, Half and Half, cinnamon sticks, and nutmeg to a medium saucepan. Place the mixture over low heat and bring barely to a boil, stirring frequently.
- Meanwhile, beat the egg yolks and 3/4 cup sugar in a medium bowl until pale yellow in color and fluffy.
- Slowly add 1 cup of the hot milk mixture the beaten egg yolks, beating with a wire whisk until well blended. Gradually whisk the milk and egg yolk mixture back into the remaining hot milk mixture in the saucepan.
- Cook and stir on medium-low heat for 3-5 minutes or until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
- Strain the mixture into a large bowl. Allow to cool slightly. Cover and refrigerate overnight or until well chilled.
- When ready to serve, add the bourbon or rum to a serving pitcher. Stir in the chilled eggnog.
- Whip the cream and remaining 1/4 cup sugar until soft peaks form.
- In a bowl or tall glass, place one scoop each of coffee and chocolate ice cream. Pour over the chilled eggnog. Top with whipped cream and crushed peppermint. Garnish with a peppermint stick if desired.
