Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
  • 2 cups reduced-fat eggnog
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup reduced-fat whipped topping, divided
  • Additional ground nutmeg, optional

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over eggnog; let stand for 1 minute. Heat over low heat, stirring until gelatin is completely dissolved. Stir in the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg until sugar is dissolved. Transfer to a small bowl; stir in vanilla. Refrigerate until mixture begins to thicken.
