I have a problem with egg yolks and avoid them as much as possible. This eggnog is a good substitute for regular eggnog that is loaded with eggs. The flavor is a bit different, too. It is a sweet refreshing drink. Try it, please.

MOCK EGG NOG
2 quarts milk
3/4 ounce package instant vanilla pudding mix
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon salt, optional
1 cup heavy whipping cream
Additional nutmeg for garnish

In a mixing bowl, beat milk and pudding mix at low speed for 2 minutes. Beat in the sugar, nutmeg, vanilla and salt, if using. In another mixing bowl, beat whipping cream until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir into pudding mixture. Refrigerate until serving time. Sprinkle with additional nutmeg, if desired. Makes about 2 1/2 quarts.
