Eggnog? Did someone say Eggnog? Yes, another delicious dessert and this time a creme brulee. This is a more time consuming recipe but worth it! If you love Creme Brulee and Nog well..need I say more? This is one creamy, rich and nogalicious dessert as the flavors of rum, brandy and nutmeg are tasteful bites of heaven. The total time for this dessert is 4 1/2 hours so it would be better to make it ahead of time. Recipe from Pillsbury Christmas Cookbook.

How To Make eggnog creme brulee

  • 1
    Heat oven to 325F. Place eight 6-oz. ramekins or custard cups in 15x10x1-inch baking pan.
  • 2
    Heat whipping cream in medium saucepan just to a simmer. Remove from heat.
  • 3
    In medium bowl, combine egg yolks and eggs; beat well. Stir in sugar until combined. With wire whisk, stir in hot whipping cream until well blended. Stir in rum, brandy, vanilla and nutmeg. Pour mixture into ramekins.
  • 4

    Before serving, place ramekins in 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Top each with 1 Tablespoon brown sugar. Broil 4 to 6 inches from heat for 1 to 2 minutes or until sugar is melted. (Watch closely.) Store in refrigerator. Tip: To sugar-coat the cooled custards, hold a strainer over each ramekin and press the brown sugar through. The even layer of sugar on the custards will melt evenly under the broiler.
