I modified this recipe slightly as I wanted some egg nog but didn't want to use the uncooked-egg recipe I usually use so my three-year old could have some. I used 5 eggs, half a 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk, no sugar, 1 tsp vanilla, 4 cups of milk, maybe ½ or 3/4 tsp rum extract, and a sprinkle of nutmeg into the batch. I cooked the yolks with the sweetened condensed milk over low heat as recommended by previous reviewers. It took maybe 10 minutes or so, constantly stirring. Once it got pretty thick, I removed it from the heat and let it cool. Then I mixed the yolk mixture with the rest of the ingredients (except the egg whites) in the blender. I used a stand mixture to beat the whites until stiff peaks formed, and then I gently folded and stirred the whites into the milk mixture. I put it in a pitcher in the fridge for a few hours to chill, and gave it a good stir before serving. It's not quite as thick as the store-bought stuff, but it's a lot less fattening too! And to the previous reviewer, there is a BIG difference between sweetened condensed milk and evaporated milk!! Did you use the right one?
