Sorry People...No Rum in this one.
Also, this is NOT a thick beverage. It ends up more like a thinner, foamy, creamy milkshake. It is as close as I've actually come to a REAL recipe for my MIL's Egg Nog, so I'm writing it down. This way, I can re-create it again, along with anyone else who loves this style of Egg Nog.
8 eggs, separated
2/3 C sugar
4 C milk (whole or 2%)
2 C half & half
1-1/2 Tbs vanilla
2 C heavy whipping cream
cinnamon to taste
nutmeg to taste
dash of salt
Beat egg yolks until thick & lemon colored. Gradually beat in sugar. Stir in milk, half & half, and vanilla.
Whip cream until light & fluffy. Whisk into egg yolk mixture.
Add a dash of salt to egg whites & beat until they stand in peaks. Fold into egg mixture.
Add cinnamon & nutmeg to taste. Add more sugar to taste. Enjoy!
Any of the dairy measuremnts can be adjusted, but the total should be about 8 cups - i.e. 6 cups of milk & 2 of cream if you omit the half & half.

Whole Wheat Crepes
1 cup low-fat milk
3/4 cups whole wheat flour
1 large egg
1 additional egg white
1 Tbs sugar (optional)
In a blender or food processor, process the milk and egg until will mixed, but stopping short of creating foam. Add flour, sugar (if desired) and any spices you want to try and pulse until just mixed. The batter should be quite thin. Add more milk as neccessary. (I think I tripled the batch and did have to thin it a little)
Heat a lightly-greased medium skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. The pan is ready when a drop of water dropped in the pan dances on the surface.
For each crepe, use 3 Tablespoons of batter. Immediately swirl the pan gently to distribute the batter in a very thin layer. Cook the crepe until the surface appears dry -- about 1 minute. Stack completed crepes on a plate with wax paper between each crepe to prevent sticking.
Fill crepes with you favorite filling. Roll and enjoy! I love them with a little Nutella & strawberries or bananas.
