  • 6 cups of skim milk
  • 1 cup of Egg Beaters or your favorite comparable product

  • 2 teaspoons of rum extract
  • Ground nutmeg and cinnamon or you can use a bit of pumpkin pie spice

You can even add a dollop of nonfat, sugar free topping for an added treat!

No Egg-Nog

Author: MrsH of Sunny Florida

Ingredients

  • 1 pkg. instant vanilla pudding
  • 1 1/2 quarts milk
  • 2 1/2 tsp rum extract
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

Instructions

  • Blend pudding mix and 2 cups of milk, following directions on pudding package. Chill for 5 minutes. Add the rum and nutmeg, then mix in the rest of the milk. Chill and serve.

Notes

If you don't want to use eggs in your eggnog, pudding mix will do the trick. It's not as rich as traditional eggnog, but is quicker to make and noticeably sweeter.
