PIES AND TACOS
This pie features a spiced gingerbread cookie crust, and a creamy and sweet eggnog filling.
First, you want to start by making the dough fo the Gingerbread Crust, since it has to rest in the fridge for a couple of hours before you can roll it out and bake. After resting the dough in the fridge, roll it out and press it down the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate.
And if you have leftovers, you can roll them out and make cut out cookies out of them. I actually ended up making another batch so I could make extra cookies, but I was able to obtain quite a few cookies from the leftover dough from the first time I made it.
Sugared cranberries are super easy to make, and will make any dessert prettier! You can make them to top cakes, pies, cupcakes, serve with cocktails. It will immediately make anything more festive!
Now, let’s talk about the delicious Eggnog filling! I used sweetened condensed milk, obviously. Sweetened condensed milk provides a texture and taste unlike anything else!
And the best part is how easy the filling is to make. The ingredients are super simple too: cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, eggnog, vanilla, and spices (cinnamon and nutmeg, because they go so well with eggnog).
The cinnamon and nutmeg go so well with eggnog I even sprinkled some on top of the pie to decorate it!
Perfect for Christmas baking season.
