How to Make Special Chocolate Eggnog
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large egg yolks, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until the mixture is thick, pale, and smooth (about 5-7 minutes).
- Gradually whisk in 4 cups whole milk and 1/2 cup dark rum (or substitute with additional milk for a non-alcoholic version). Mix until well combined.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the eggnog to chill thoroughly.
- In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 6 large egg whites with a pinch of salt using an electric mixer until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Gently fold 1 cup heavy cream, whipped to soft peaks, into the chilled chocolate mixture. Then, carefully fold in the beaten egg whites in two additions, being sure not to deflate the mixture.
- Serve immediately, garnished with freshly grated dark chocolate or a sprinkle of cocoa powder.
