This eggnog custard has just four ingredients. And it’s super quick to make! You’ll just need unflavored gelatin, eggnog, rum and nutmeg.
How to make Spiked Eggnog Custard:
The gelatin is softened in 1/4 cup water. Then it’s microwaved until the gelatin is dissolved in the hot water. Eggnog is mixed with rum in a bowl, and then the dissolved gelatin is whisked in. Then you can divide the custard mixture between four serving dishes. They’re refrigerated until set. That’s it!
Desserts 4 Today- Flavorful Desserts with just FOUR ingredients, is a cookbook by Abigail Dodge. It’s hard enough for me to think up a recipe to make that has just four ingredients, but Abby managed to come up with a whole cookbook full of dessert recipes- all made with only 4 ingredients!

When you’re ready to serve your Spiked Eggnog Custard, sprinkle some ground nutmeg on top. If you have fresh nutmeg, grate that on top instead.
Can I leave the rum out of the Eggnog Custard?
Yes! If you don’t want your eggnog to be spiked, don’t use rum. Substitute 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for the rum. Then you’ll just have a delicious Eggnog Custard!
