Creamy Dreamy Eggnog

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1. In large saucepan, beat together eggs and sugar. Stir in 2 cups of the milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick enough to coat a metal spoon with a thin film and reaches 145°F and is held there for 3 1/2 minutes. Remove from heat.
2. Stir in whipping cream, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, several hours or overnight.
3. Serve garnished with whipped cream and nutmeg!
