Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas Eve. I am so thrilled to have all my members as part of my extended family. I love reading your comments and private messages all year. Thank you for being part of the family…. Have a glorious day!

Bob and I had eggnog muffins this morning for breakfast to put us in the holiday mood. This is a quick and easy recipe I wanted to share. It’s great if you have some leftover eggnog or what to try something new for Christmas morning… (Omit the rum if you are serving children).

I hope you try this recipe and enjoy it!

Eggnog Muffins
(Makes 12 muffins)

Serve these muffins with butter or jam … very yummy! If you plan on serving them to children, leave out the rum, increase the amount of eggnog, and add vanilla extract.

Ingredients:

2 cups flour
2/3-cup sugar
1-tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup prepared eggnog
1/2 cup dark rum
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 egg, beaten to blend
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Grease one 12-cup muffin pan or use cupcake papers

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Stir in the remaining ingredients.
Spoon into prepared pan.
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the tester comes out clean.
Cool slightly before serving.

Until my next post, make every day a celebration!

Stay well,

Diane
