Directions
- 1. In a medium saucepan, heat the milk and heavy cream over medium-low heat. Bring to a gentle simmer, then remove from heat.
- 2. In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until thick and creamy.
- 3. Slowly pour a small amount of the hot milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent curdling.
- 4. Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan with the rest of the milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon (about 5 minutes).
- 5. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips, stirring until fully melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- 6. If desired, stir in the rum or bourbon for a spiked version.
