Ingredients

Cinnamon-sugar rim

  • 1/4 cup

    sugar

  • 1 tsp.

    cinnamon

Egg nog

  • 5

    egg yolks

  • 1/3 cup

    sugar

  • 2 cups

    milk

  • 1/2 tsp.

    cinnamon

    nutmeg, plus more for garnish

  • 1 tsp.

    vanilla

Directions

    1. Step 1Make cinnamon-sugar rim: Combine cinnamon and sugar on a shallow plate. Moisten the rim of each glass with water and dip into the cinnamon sugar. Set aside.
    2. Step 2Make egg nog: In a large saucepan, whisk egg yolks and sugar to combine. Add milk, nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla, and turn on heat to medium-low. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do not boil. (If using a candy thermometer, the mixture should reach 160 degrees F.)
    3. Step 3Remove from heat, stirring in heavy cream and RumChata. Refrigerate until chilled.
    4. Step 4When ready to serve, pour into cups and sprinkle with additional nutmeg. Garnish with cinnamon sticks if desired.
