LIGHT AND CREAMY LOW FAT AND SUGAR FREE EGGNOG

Steps:

• Place all of the ingredients in a blender, and blend for 30-60 seconds, or until smooth. Chill for several hours.
• Shake or stir eggnog well to blend before serving. Serve in glasses or mugs with an additional sprinkle of nutmeg.
• NOTES: You can use 6 packets of Equal instead of the Splenda Granular. If you'd rather not use artificial sweeteners, then substitute the Splenda with 1/4 cup sugar, and use 1/2 cup regular instant vanilla pudding instead of the 3 Tbsps sugar-free pudding.

LOW-FAT EGGNOG

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 cups milk and the citrus zest in a medium saucepan. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds; add the seeds and pod to the saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, egg yolk, sugar and cornstarch in a medium bowl until light yellow.
• Gradually pour the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly, then pour back into the pan. Place over medium heat and stir constantly with a wooden spoon in a figure-eight motion until the eggnog begins to thicken, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the remaining 1/2 cup milk to stop the cooking. Transfer the eggnog to a large bowl and place over a larger bowl of ice to cool, then chill until ready to serve.
• Remove the zest and vanilla pod. Spike the eggnog with liquor, if desired, and garnish with nutmeg.

EGGNOG - SLIMMED

Steps:

• In a nonstick saucepan combine 2 cups of the milk, the orange zest, and cinnamon. Heat over medium-high heat until just below a boil. Remove from the heat and set aside for 30 minutes to steep. Refrigerate the remaining cup of milk.
• Reheat the milk mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl whisk together the eggs and sugar. Gradually pour half the hot milk into the egg mixture while whisking constantly. Pour the hot egg mixture back into the milk and cook the custard over low heat, stirring constantly until thickened, about 4 minutes. Don't let the custard boil. Strain custard into a bowl. Discard the cinnamon and orange zest. Add the vanilla to the custard and set aside to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until cold.
• When ready to serve, foam the reserved cold milk with a milk frother or immersion blender, and fold into the custard. Serve eggnog in cups dusted with cinnamon.
