Eggnog Muffins with Cranberry Filling

December 21, 2015 by Faith 5 Comments

This recipe for Eggnog Muffins with Cranberry Filling is a great way to satisfy a sweet tooth when you’re in the mood for something festive!

Mike sometimes talks about taking a Christmas vacation to somewhere warm, but I have trouble getting behind that idea. I need cold, preferably snowy weather to feel festive.

Growing up in Buffalo, our Christmases were usually white. Not that it was ever a sure thing (because some years we did end up with a mucky brown Christmas!). But it was definitely more likely to be white there than it is here in the DC area.…

Spiced with freshly-grated nutmeg and laced with vanilla and cinnamon, this Eggnog Pudding is full of festive flavor! It’s surprisingly healthy too. Protein powder bumps up the protein content, and there’s no added sugar! The strangest thing happened the other day… My day was going along uneventfully until I suddenly found myself ravenous; it was between meal times, so a little snack was in order. I went for one of my favorites, carrots + hummus. Normal enough, right?...

Eggnog Cupcakes with Eggnog Buttercream

Until I made these cupcakes, I hadn’t fully realized the lemony flavor and scent of nutmeg. While baking, they filled the house with a sweet lemony aroma, and almost everyone who tasted them thought they were flavored with lemon or some type of citrus.

Eggnog

To me, nothing is more festive than eggnog. Snow falling, carols playing, and a glass of chilled eggnog is all it takes to put me in a festive holiday mood. I know you can buy eggnog at the store without all the work of making it yourself…but I promise that the store-bought stuff can’t hold a candle to the flavor of homemade eggnog! If you want to share, I’d love you hear some of your favorite holiday foods or drinks! If you like the flavor of eggnog, but find it too rich to drink on its own, here are a few other uses for it: […]...
