What you need
- 7 egg yolks
- 2.5, 3 cups of milk
- 4, 5 whole cloves
- About a tablespoon of ground cinnamon
- 2ish splashes of vanilla extract little more is good
- 5ish dashes of nutmeg
- 1.5ish cups of sugar
- Half a half carton of Half and Half
- Half a half carton of heavy whipping cream
Directions:
Put the milk, cloves, cinnamon, and 1 splash of vanilla on low heat and bring to a boil very slowly
Whilst that is going on take the yolks and the sugar and whisk together really good.
Once your milk boils – take it off the heat until it stops boiling, and add very slowly to your yolk/sugar combo – this will cook your yolks but not get hard and gross
let that sit out and cool for about an hour – then add your half-n-half, nutmeg and the second splash of vanilla and whisk it around really good – Also take out the cloves, they should be floating on the top
Put that in your fridge until it’s cold – couple hours/overnight whatever.
When it’s cold dump in your heavy whipping cream and mix it around a whole lot
Enjoy as is or add a light rum like Bicardi Superior or some other clear rum
Happy Christmas all.
What to do with 7 eggwhites?
Asmo’s Super Secret Chocolate Moose:
What you need:
- 1/3rd cup strong coffee
- little more than about 1/2 a bag of your favorite chocolate chips
- 8 Egg whites
- 1 egg yolk
Directions
Over low heat melt chocolate with the coffee and add the yolk and mix around until smooth
With elecrtic mixer take your 8 whites and beat until you have stiff peaks
GENTLY fold 1/2 of the whites into the chocolate
VERY SLOWLY add this new mix and GENTLY fold into other whites
Pour directly into serving dishes (I like small wine glasses) and chill
Serve as soon as it’s cold – If you want to store for 4+hours put plastic wrap directly on the stuff, elsewise it kind of gets runny and gross… I think you can freeze it too, but I never have any left to try.
