Notes
This ice cream is delicious and couldn't be more easy. Many eggnog ice cream recipes call for milk, heavy cream, nutmeg and the other ingredients necessary to create the eggnog flavor. Well, I say just buy eggnog and be done with it! I recently got a waffle cone maker and this was my first time to use it. They came out nice and crispy! As for the topping I purchased gingersnaps and crumbled a few on top.
Sorry ice cream industry, I'm making my own ice cream this year!
