The holiday season just isn’t complete without eggnog. In order to allow everyone, including kids, the elderly and pregnant ladies to enjoy, I chose to make a cooked version. It is every bit as delicious as the uncooked version without the worry. For sweetness, this recipe uses Truvia, a natural, zero-calorie sweetener derived from the stevia plant. It won’t make your blood sugar soar. Enjoy!
