Ingredients

Scale

2 cups coconut milk
1 cup hazelnut milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup dark rum (optional)
Whipped cream and toasted coconut flakes for garnish


Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine coconut milk, hazelnut milk, and heavy cream.

Heat over medium-low heat until the mixture is warm but not boiling.

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture is pale and thick.

Slowly add a ladle of the warm milk mixture to the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Repeat with another ladle.

Pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan.

Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes).

Remove from heat and stir in nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and rum (if using).

Let the eggnog cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until chilled.

Serve in glasses, topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes.
