Homemade eggnog pudding, this recipe can’t get much easier. With a festive flair, this homemade pudding recipe is made with eggnog, yum!
As with most people around this time of year, I just love making tons of desserts! And, of course, I like to use seasonal flavors.
I haven’t tried making many things with eggnog in the past, so I thought, why not!
This pudding is rich and decadent, serve in glasses and top with cinnamon whipped cream if desired!
This is also a wonderful recipe to make to use in other desserts like pie filling, parfaits, or even cookie cups!
But, I like to just eat it up with a spoon… its that good!

So delicious! I just made this for our Christmas dinner for 4 and it is scrumptious! I had to substitute 1/4 cup all-purpose flour for the cornstarch because I had no cornstarch in the cabinet & I wasn’t going out in the snow, but it still came out perfectly 🙂
