I found this document as I was going through documents i saved. it is a recipe from Leaf42. Our thereian friend passed away a couple years ago, but i wanted to share his recipe. 

Soft Custard 

3 eggs, slightly beaten 
1/3 cup granulated sugar 
Dash salt 
2 1/2 cups milk 
1 teaspoon vanilla 

Eggnog 

1 cup whipping cream 
2 tablespoons powdered sugar 
1/2 teaspoon vanilla 
1/2 cup light rum 
1 or 2 drops yellow food color, if desired 
Ground nutmeg 

1. In 2-quart heavy saucepan, stir eggs, granulated sugar and salt until well mixed. Gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat 10 to 15 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture just coats a metal spoon; remove from heat. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla. Place saucepan in cold water until custard is cool. (If custard curdles, beat vigorously with hand beater until smooth.) Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours but no longer than 24 hours. 

2. Just before serving, in chilled medium bowl, beat whipping cream, powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla with electric mixer on high speed until stiff. Gently stir 1 cup of the whipped cream, the rum and food color into custard. 

3. Pour custa
