Ingredients

Instructions

  • *Be sure to make your pudding layer first so it has time to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 350°
  • In a medium sauce pan combine 2 cups eggnog, 2 T butter and fresh ground nutmeg
  • Heat until butter is melted and eggnog slightly scalded
  • In another bowl, whisk together 4 egg yolks and 2 T sugar
  • Slowly add this mixture to the hot mixture, whisking lightly
  • Continue cooking for 10 to 15 minutes on a low heat until mixture starts to thicken a bit
  • Mix 1 C eggnog and corn starch together
  • Add to the hot eggnog mixture, whisking constantly
  • Intermittently whisk as mixture continues to cook for the next 5 to 10 minutes
  • When pudding has thickened, remove from heat
  • Cover with plastic wrap to avoid skimming and place in refrigerator to cool while you are making the other layers
  • To make the crust, combine 2 C gluten-free Pamela's Products artisan flour, 1/4 C almond flour, 1/3 C powdered sugar, baking powder and xanthan gum and mix well
  • Cut in 1/2 (or 8 T) butter in small pieces
  • Add the egg and vanilla and blend until everything is well combined
  • Press the mixture into a 9 x 13 pan
  • Bake for 15 minutes then remove from oven and let cool
  • In your stand mixer or a large bowl, whip 1 1/2 C of heavy cream with 1/2 C eggnog and 1/4 C powdered sugar until stiff peaks form
  • Remove one cup to use in the cream cheese layer
  • Reserve the remainder to top the dessert
  • In another bowl cut the cream cheese into small pieces
  • Add 1/4 C powdered sugar a little at a time into the cream cheese while you mix
  • When powdered sugar and cream cheese are blended smooth, fold in 1 cup of whipped cream
  • Spread this layer on top of the cool crust
  • Next spread the cooled eggnog pudding over the cream cheese layer and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 to 3 hours
  • When you're ready to serve, top with reserved whip cream then sprinkle the whole thing with fresh nutmeg

Notes

Be sure to use full fat eggnog.
I like fresh grated nutmeg but it isn't necessary.
