I haven't tried this yet, but from all the recipes I could find on the Net, this one looked the closest to actually tasting like real egg nog. Adam will have to be the final arbitor on whether or not it fits in his diet or not.
Low Carb Egg Nog
1/2 cup plus 2 Tablespoons Splenda
2 eggs, separated
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Brandy or rum flavoring to taste
1 teaspoon eggnog flavored oil (LorAnn or Amish brand) [optional]
1/2 cup whipping cream, whipped with sweetener of choice
Ground nutmeg and/or mace
Beat 1/2 cup Splenda with egg yolks. Add salt, stir in 2 cups cream and 2 cups water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture coats a spoon. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Beat egg whites until foamy then gradually add remaining Splenda, beating to soft peaks. Add to cooked mixture and blend thoroughly. Add vanilla and flavoring(s). Chill at least 3-4 hours.
