Eggnog Cheesecake For You?

This eggnog cheesecake is perfect for eggnog lovers and eggnog haters. It has enough eggnog flavor for the lovers and not too much for the haters. I’m not sure where I fall on the eggnog spectrum. I LOVE this pie, but I would never drink a glass of eggnog. Maybe what I like is the rum and the nutmeg flavorings and what I don’t like it the “egg”.

When I was young, I would down the eggnog. It was like liquid ice cream. I could drink as much of it as I wanted and no would say a word because it was technically a beverage and not dessert. But as I grew older, and things like fat and calories became more important to me I realized that drinking eggnog is a horrible waste of calories. If I am going to have dessert (eggnog flavored or not) then it should be worth it. It should be a big slice of Butterfinger Cake or an Extreme Salted Caramel Milkshakes. If I’m going to have dessert, I’m going to go big. Drinking eggnog isn’t big enough.

This Eggnog Cheesecake Is Different

This cheesecake is a little different, which is why it has mass appeal. It is a simple, no-bake cheesecake that starts with a graham cracker crust. The filling is made with cream cheese, sugar and store-bought eggnog. I do admit, the eggnog not only lends flavor but makes this dessert super creamy. Melted white chocolate and rum are mixed in (rum extract is perfectly fine) along with a container of whipped topping. I piped on homemade whipped cream, but you could mound another container of whipped topping if you like. A sprinkling of nutmeg or cinnamon can finish it off! This eggnog cheesecake recipe is simple, but impressive enough to entertain your family and friends over the holidays!
