Preparation
Can I make eggnog pie ahead?
Yes, you can make eggnog pie up to 2 days in advance before serving. Store covered in the fridge until ready to serve.
Is there alcohol in eggnog pie?
No, for this dessert we just use the eggnog drink without alcohol. This is a family friendly dessert for anyone who’d like to indulge!
Do I need to bake the crust first?
If using our homemade graham cracker crust recipe, you do need to bake that crust in order for it to set. However, a store bought crust does not need to be baked first making this a true no-bake recipe.
Top with nutmeg or cinnamon!
Leftovers and storage
How long does eggnog pie last?
Store the pie, covered, in the fridge for up to 4 days. Serve chilled.
Can I freeze eggnog pie?

Whipped cream or white chocolate shavings would also be a delicious garnish.
Tips and tricks
