Dave's Famous Eggnog Pie recipe
 
I posted this last year, and recently had a request to post it again this
year. It is rich and tasty and will be a hit.

Ingredients

8 tsp unflavored gelatin
½ cup cornstarch
2 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
4 cups milk.
12 egg yolks
6 tsp vanilla extract
3 tsp almond extract
2 pints whipping cream that has been whipped.
Pre-made pie crusts. I prefer the Pillsbury brand. Bake them ahead according
to directions.

In a saucepan, add together:

Gelatin
Sugar
Cornstarch


Procedure

· Over medium heat, gradually add the milk, constantly stir until it
thickens and boils. Then boil for one minute.
· Remove from heat. Gradually stir the hot mixture into the egg
yolks.
· Return the mixture into the saucepan.
· Bring to a boil WHILE CONSTANTLY STIRRING.
· Remove from heat.
· Add vanilla and almond extract.
· Place saucepan into a large container of ice-water until the
mixture cools enough to form mounds when dropped from a spoon into the
saucepan.
· Gently, but thoroughly, fold in the whipped cream.
· Pour the mixture into pie crusts. Sprinkle with nutmeg to taste.
· Cover with cling-wrap by placing tooth-picks in the pie to hold
cling-wrap off the top.
· Place in the refrigerator to chill. PLEASE NOTE: make sure your
refrigerator doesn't reek from other odors, 'cause the pie WILL pick up the
flavor. Damhikt.

Sounds good. My wife has a recipe for Egg Nog Pie from an old
Gourmet Magazine back in the 70s. The gelatine is softened in
white Vermouth and there is rum in the whipping cream. The crust
is made with ground pecans, sugar and butter. The pie is
garnished with chocolate curls.

It says to sprinkle the top with nutmeg.

Actually, it's just a super-rich custard pie. Or baked French custard.

Non alcoholic eggnog I can handle. What I cannot handle is
artificial rum flavouring. A few months ago we were in a
restaurant where they screwed up my wife's dinner order so they
comped us a piece of what they called tiramisu. I didn't have a
problem with it having a base of sponge cake instead of Lady
Fingers. That is an acceptable substitution. What was harder to
handle was pastry creme instead of a filling made of marscapone,
whipping cream and eggs. But was was unforgivable was to use
artificial rum flavouring. It made it disgusting.

Dayum. That recipe needs to come with a warning!

I made a half batch, had *more* than enough filling for the pie.
Whether the remaining filling makes it thtough to Tursday...well the
odds ar eit'll disappear before then.

Thanks for posting, Dave.

With a half batch of the recipe? How many do you get out of the full
recipe? And having made just one, I expect I'll be making at least a
couple come Christmastiime :-)

Sadly the first post never arrived here, something that happens to often.
But since I use Agent, I can just click on the message ID and grab it, but
others can't.
