How to Make Caramel Eggnog

Separate 2 large eggs. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form using an electric mixer.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large egg yolks, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt until light and pale.
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture until just combined.
Add 2 cups of milk (dairy or non-dairy), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup caramel sauce. Stir until well blended.
Pour into glasses. Top with whipped cream and a drizzle of additional caramel syrup.
For a warm Caramel Eggnog: Heat the milk before adding to the yolk mixture. Skip whipping the egg whites – gently stir them into the yolk mixture instead.
