    Eggnog Cheesecake Bars

    Somehow I got well into my late twenties before I ever had eggnog.  It always just seemed kinda ... gross ...

    Then I found myself at a lunch-time holiday party of a very buttoned up engineering firm, where the head of the company ceremoniously made the eggnog every year, and declining the eggnog did not seem like a good business decision.  So I tried it.

    And then I tried another.

    Let me tell you guys, I am no lightweight.  In fact, I consider myself something of a professional when it comes to consuming cocktails, but after two of these infamously strong signature eggnogs, I found myself sprawled out across two fancy swivel chairs in an upstairs conference room with several other employees, wondering if I REALLY needed to go to that 3 pm client meeting.

    That was the day I learned that I LOVE eggnog.  And the day that I vowed to never have two glasses of it without knowing exactly how much booze was in it again.

    Life is full of little lessons, isn't it?

    Luckily, these eggnog cheesecake bars give all the luscious, creamy, spicy eggnog flavor of the classic boozy cocktail, but will not leave you loopy in a rarely used conference room tucked away in the back corner of your office.  Win, win, do you you think?
