Here just in time for the holiday season, this eggnog pie recipe turns a classic Christmas beverage into a delicious and festive dessert. From Alison Roman at BuzzFeed, the homemade treat turns the essential elements of the drink -- dairy, eggs, sugar, nutmeg and alcohol -- into a pie format.
The eggnog pie recipe features a cookie crumb crust made out of crushed gingersnaps. Other key ingredients include grated nutmeg, kosher salt, sugar and unsalted butter. The pie filling consists of more unsalted butter, sugar and kosher salt plus milk, heavy cream, egg yolks, cornstarch, bourbon or rum. The whole thing is topped with homemade whipped cream with added nutmeg and gingersnap cookies.
If you have any holiday parties to go to, this would be a welcome addition.
