Mom only makes this for two reasons: Christmas or by my special request when I'm having a bad run of it. It is delish and even has a special treat - a smidgin of whiskey. This is thick and I'm sure that if you're not used to this kind of a drink that you might not like it the first time you try it. It's not eggnog, nor anything like it.
Ingredients:
4 eggs
1 tablespoon flour
4 cups milk (use whole for best results)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup sugar (heaping)
whiskey, to taste
Directions:
1. Remove sperm (white gunk in the egg whites) from the eggs. Beat well.
2. Combine sugar, flour, and salt in the top of a double boiler. Add the eggs and milk and turn the heat on med-low.
3. Whisk constantly until mixture coats the back of a spoon, cooking as long as necessary.
4. When done, remove from heat and whisk in vanilla. Place in a pitcher and refrigerate until cold. Add whiskey to taste.
