EGGNOG CREAM

The traditional sauce for Christmas pudding is a "hard sauce", that's to say brandy butter but I can't help feeling that this corner-cutting Eggnogg Cream, devised for my Express festivities last year, is best of all. 

Actually, Dom, my long-suffering TV director, does a version of this with brandy, which also hits the spot (I think the cool cream factor is key), though you will need to whip in a tablespoon or two of icing sugar - no more - as you go.

Ingredients

  • Express Recipe
  • Gluten Free
  • Nigella Recipe
  • Vegetarian
  • 350ml double cream
  • 125ml advocaat liqueur

Method

  1. Put the cream into a bowl and, using an electric whisk, start whipping to aerate and thicken.  While it's still floppy, whisk in the advocaat, and once the yol-yellow, eggnogg-flavoured liqueur is combined and the cream thick but still soft, stop and spatula into a generous bowl and serve with the pudding.
