This is the best recipe I have for Eggnog,...Andrew <br />This is the best recipe I have for Eggnog, Martha's Traditional Recipe from Entertaining can be a bit strong, but this is a amazing! A couple years ago I made this for a Christmas Party, and hosted over 75 guests here at my home.<br />Warning: This recipe yields a huge batch! <br />In fact I made this recipe twice, one of the worst kitchen disasters of my life happened when I attempted this the first time...<br />Below is the menu I prepared and served to 75 guests, so as you can imagine I went sleepless for nearly 3 days, at the point where you add the melted chocolate to the eggnog base I decided to use a rubber scrapper to make sure i utilized all the melted chocolate, however, due to being tired and well it was 4 something in the Am, I know so Martha! I accidentally dropped the bowl into the eggnog base and hence a huge splash of eggnog went everywhere! <br />Ceiling, Check!<br />Floor, Check!<br />Me, Check!<br />you get the point! The mess was unbelievable!<br />So after a crying fit, on the kitchen floor curled up in a fetal position I began to clean and clean and clean, by 7am you would have never known that old faithful wen off right here in this very kitchen!<br /><br />My novela has gone on long enough! Happy Holidays! I hope you got my card and CD!<br /><br />David in Denver<br /><br />Oh Yeah...
