This is a favorite in our home. Bonus is that we can make this all year around even when eggnog is not in season to buy in grocery store.

I make this every year for Thanksgiving. It's easy to make and is so creamy and smooth. It's like custard but in a pie. Delicious!! I add a layer of homemade whip cream but other than that I like it just the way it is!
