Diane, you are killing me with your awesome recipes.

I have been looking for a really good egg nog recipe for years and yours sounds like a winner. I have tried several in the past but was disappointed. And that Rum Eggnog bundt cake recipe, whew, I'm hungry. Will definitely copy both recipes. Thanks again!

your Welcome Stephanie!! I like the Nocook eggnog for when company shows up last minute I start keeping all ingredients on hand starting on Thanksgiving it Nice to have and mix up a five minute job and company always wants more!! think it might be the rum in it [lala]

I really like using the spice rum !

I was thinking the same. Kids would not care for the taste of rum, have tried baking it into a cake before with less than thrilled kiddos.

angelblossom, wow, what a great dessert! Everyone loved it. I used pecans in place of almonds and drizzled a bit more rum [Big Grin]
