💡 Pro-Tips and Variations
-
Boozy Twist (Optional): If you prefer a non-alcoholic cake, simply replace the spiced rum/brandy with an equal amount of additional eggnog or 17$\frac{1}{2}$ teaspoon of rum extract for flavor.18
-
Pudding Consistency: Use instant pudding mix only, not the "cook-and-serve" variety. Using cold eggnog helps the pudding set quickly and properly.19
-
Spice it Up: Can't find spice cake mix? Use a yellow or white cake mix and add 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and $\frac{1}{2}$ teaspoon of ground nutmeg to the dry mix.
-
Homemade Topping: For a fresher taste, substitute the store-bought whipped topping with homemade whipped cream. Beat 2 cups of heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and $\frac{1}{2}$ teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
-
Poking Tool: The handle of a wooden spoon is ideal as it creates large, neat holes for the custard to fill, ensuring a moist cake.20 Gently twist the spoon handle as you pull it out to keep the hole open.
