8 Things to Make with Leftover Eggnog

December 20, 2021 By Tanji Leave a Comment

Channel your inner Clark Griswold and knock back some nog this Christmas! If you’re left with leftovers on the 26th, then try one of these genius ways to put it to use. From a boozy milkshake to an impressive Instant Pot cheesecake, we have recipes for you. Even those who are eggnog shy will like these sweet treats!

This recipe from Taste of Home takes all the best things about the holidays and wraps them into a sweet, delicious cake. Combine all the ingredients, pour them in a pan to sit overnight, then bake this in the morning for the perfect fresh-out-of-oven coffee cake.

All you need are three ingredients to make this bread pudding from Little Sweet Baker. Just add cinnamon raisin bread and eggs to your eggnog for a custardy dessert or sweet breakfast.

Your average sweet potato side dish gets an eggnog upgrade in this recipe from Taste of Home. The crunchy, nutty topping is the perfect contrast to the soft and creamy mashed potatoes. The end result tastes like pumpkin pie!

Bernie’s Burger Bus Eggnog Milkshake

This Goodtaste-approved milkshake is from Chef Justin at Bernie’s Burger Bus. If you have leftover eggnog on hand, skip the spices and add a couple splashes of the creamy seasonal drink for a milkshake shortcut! Psst: Don’t forget the whiskey or rum!

Mini Eggnog Bundt Cakes

In this Goodtaste original recipe, we’ve taken rich and creamy eggnog and turned it into our dessert of the season: adorable but elegant bundtlettes! Store-bought nog will do the trick to make the cakes rich and tender and flavor the milky glaze. For a final festive flourish, top them with sugared cranberries and fresh rosemary.

Once you’ve tried eggnog in latte form, you may never go back to the original version again! This Kitchn recipe is the perfect Christmas-morning pick-me-up or end-of-meal treat.

Make-Ahead Eggnog Crème Brûlée French Toast

This custardy, decadent French toast bake from How Sweet Eats uses leftover eggnog in the custardy base. The bottom caramelizes in the pan, giving you a crackly, crème brûlée–like crust. Did we mention it’s also an excellent make-ahead brunch? Save this one for a lazy post-Christmas morning or a hearty New Year’s Day breakfast!

Instant Pot Eggnog Cheesecake

This recipe from Buns in My Oven is so genius, we wish we’d thought of it first! The even, consistent heat of an Instant Pot is perfect for cooking a cheesecake and gives you an utterly smooth, creamy filling. The leftover eggnog flavors the filling for you, so you don’t need to buy any extra spices.
