Ingredients and Directions

Directions

  1. In a medium heavy bottom saucepan, beat eggs and sugar until blended. Stir in 1 cup milk.

  2. Cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until mixture just coats the back of a spoon, about 15-20 minutes, or until temperature reaches 160°F, but do not allow to boil.

  3. Remove from heat, then stir in remaining milk and vanilla. Strain into a bowl, then refrigerate until completely chilled.

  4. Place chocolate syrup in a shallow plate. Dip rim of 6 martini glasses into chocolate syrup to coat rims. Refrigerate to chill.

  5. In a pitcher, stir together vodka, chocolate liqueur and eggnog.

  6. Serve in chilled martini glasses and top with grated nutmeg. Refrigerate leftovers up to 3 days.

To ensure food safety, eggs should be cooked until both the yolk and the white are firm. Consuming raw or undercooked eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness, especially for those with certain medical conditions. For recipes that call for eggs that are raw or undercooked when the dish is served, use either pasteurized shell eggs that have been treated to destroy Salmonella, or use pasteurized egg products.
