Hope you like these new additions. But both versions are very good! Recipe may sound complicated -but it's not really just a lot of explain' Lucy! hee-hee.

    Whisk eggnog, nutmeg, vanilla,sugar,and cinnamon in a shallow dish or pie plate. Unwrap the sandwiches and dip in the eggnog mixture, turning to coat both sides throughly. Melt 1/2 the butter in a large nonstick skillet or electric skillet over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook until they are golden. 3-4 minutes. Add remaining butter, flip the sandwiches and brown until golden, about 3 more minutes. Cut sandwiches into quarters. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with heated cranberry sauce for dipping.
