To all of my followers of Swedish Chef, I apologize for the lack of postings. As you remember, I am also a caterer, and I have been very busy this holiday season preparing food for various parties and gatherings. I would like to thank all of you for following my blog. I wish you a happy and healthy 2014!
This is a recipe that I used for one of my catering jobs. It was easy and I was able to make multiple desserts for a client. If you love the taste of egg nog, I think you will enjoy this simple holiday recipe.
Ingredients:
1 c. cold dairy egg nog
1 pkg. (6 servings) Jell-o vanilla instant pudding/pie filling
1 T. rum or ¼ t. rum extract
¼ t. ground nutmeg
8 oz. Cool Whip
1 prepared 8 or 9 inch graham cracker crust (I prefer shortbread crust)
Pour cold egg nog into bowl. Add pudding, rum and nutmeg.
Using an electric mixer at low speed, beat until blended, about one minute. Allow to stand five minutes.
Fold in Cool Whip. Spoon into pie crust.
Sprinkle with a light dusting of nutmeg. Chill until firm, about two hours.
Garnish with whipped cream (optional).
