    Effordless Eggnog:

    Prep/Total Time: 5 min

    This delicious holiday beverage brings back memories of old-fashioned eggnog my
    mother made when I was young. We enjoy it not just for Christmas and New Year's but
    at other times of the year as well.You can use vanilla or French vanilla pudding
    and sugarless also works.
    ---Paula Zsiray Logan, Utah

    1/2 gallon cold milk,divided
    1 package(3.4 ounces) instant French vanilla pudding mix
    1/4 cup sugar
    2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

    In a large bowl,whisk 3/4 cup milk and pudding mix until smooth. Whisk in the
    sugar,vanilla,cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir in the remaining milk. Refrigerate until
    serving.
    Yield: 16 servings(2 quarts)

    Where's the egg? (where's the nog?) It doesn't even have imitation egg
    flavoring.

    Best regards,
    Bob

    Good questions, but probably futile. The recipe sounds entirely yucky.
    Why would anyone want to drink diluted pudding? Last week, though, I
    got to enjoy some genuine homemade egg nog at a holiday party. The
    eggs and the brandy made it utterly delicious. On the other hand, I
    was forced by social pressure to try a spoonful of that "traditional"
    green bean casserole. Boy, did that suck. -aem

    I think the term "French vanilla" refers to vanilla custard, so that's where
    the nog is supposed to get its egg flavor.

    There! "LESS THAN 2% OF NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR"

    That's the "egg"! (It's also the "vanilla".)

    Compare with Bird's Custard Powder ingredients: "Cornflour, Salt,
    flavorings, Colour (Annatto). "

    Well, it WAS advertised as 'effortless', NOT as perfect (OR even good)!
