This one nails both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The story behind the pudding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I first made this after finding a carton of extra eggnog in the fridge and zero patience for boxed pudding. I wanted something that tasted like the season without fussing over a giant trifle. One pot, a whisk, and a little patience later, this <a href=\"https:\/\/9amchef.com\/easy-eggnog-cookies-with-eggnog-frosting-a-christmas\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"964\">Eggnog Dessert was born \u2014 a tiny holiday<\/a> miracle that saved more than one tired holiday evening.

combined.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-2\">Slowly pour in the eggnog while whisking, then beat in the egg yolks until the mixture looks smooth and lump-free.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-3\">Place the pan over medium-low heat. Stir constantly with a spatula or whisk as the mixture warms \u2014 this prevents lumps and scorching. The custard will begin to thicken and bubble; cook until it coats the back of a spoon, about 4\u20136 minutes.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-4\">Remove the pan from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of the vanilla.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-5\">Transfer the pudding to a bowl. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface to stop a skin from forming, then refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours. Chill thoroughly for best texture.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-6\">When you\u2019re ready to serve, chill a mixing bowl and beaters for a minute, then whip the cold heavy cream on medium speed until it starts to hold soft peaks. Sprinkle in the powdered sugar and the remaining \u00bd teaspoon vanilla, then increase speed to medium-high and whip to stiff peaks \u2014 don\u2019t overbeat or you\u2019ll turn it buttery.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-7\">Spoon the set pudding into four small glasses or bowls.
