Author: Kathy Schowe

Egg Nog Bread

ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups egg nog  (not low fat)
  • ½ cup butter at room temperature
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 2  eggs
  • 2 teaspoons dark rum ( I like Myers's)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • 1 double-pack vanilla instant pudding mix
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon  ground nutmeg
Dark Rum Glaze
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 teaspoons egg nog
  • 2 tablespoons dark rum
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

instructions:

How to cook Egg Nog Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350° and spray 3 mini baking tins with non-stick spray.
  2. Mix together the egg nog, butter, sugar, eggs, rum, and vanilla in your mixer with wire whisk attachment.
  3. Don't worry if the butter remains a bit clumpy, it will melt together when you bake it.
  4. Combine flour, pudding mix, baking powder, salt and nutmeg and sift together.
  5. Add slowly to the wet mixture and blend quickly, scraping down the sides a few times. Don't over mix.
  6. Divide mixture between 3 mini baking tins and bake for about 30 minutes or until the loaves are just done and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. While they are baking make the Dark Rum Glaze by whisking the powdered sugar with the egg nog, rum, and nutmeg.
  8. When the loaves come out of the oven, poke some holes in the top with a toothpick or chopstick and then drizzle with glaze.

NOTES:

Egg Nog can be frozen...so save some from the holiday season so you can make this sweet, delicious, pound cake-like bread when the holidays are over!

  2. Roll the meat mixture into a meatball size ball and smash down flat.
  3. Grill burgers for a few minutes on a hot grill until they are medium rare. A few minutes per side.
  4. Toast your slider buns then slather them with the Lemony Mint Mayo. Add the burgers and top with arugula.

NOTES:

The first time we had Lamb Sliders was in Sonoma, CA at a winery. They have been a favorite ever since!

How to cook Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Stuffed Hot Dogs

  1. Slice an opening in each hot dog and stuff with the matchstick pieces of jalapeño.
  2. Microwave bacon slices for 1 minute on high and then let cool enough to handle.
  3. Wrap the hotdogs with bacon slices and secure with toothpicks.
  4. Grill until hot dogs are heated through and bacon is crispy.
  5. Serve with or without buns and traditional hot dog condiments.

NOTES:

Grilling mellows out the jalapeños, but they still have a great kick!
