Christmas Recipe: Eggnog Cheesecake

EGGNOG CHEESECAKE

I first made this recipe a year ago, for my personal project. Honestly, it was the only part that went well, but it also ended up being one of my favourite recipes. It' s a recipe I got from my grandma, and it makes a really great dessert for the holidays. Hope you enjoy! - Noelle
