Homemade Advocaat

== Description ==
This is the Dutch equivalent of eggnog and literally translated means "lawyer". This traditional Dutch beverage is always served during the Christmas season. Serve in a lovely glass and provide the guest with a small spoon for consumption of the beverage.
== Ingredients ==
* 10 egg yolks
* pinch of salt
* 275 grams finely granulated sugar
* 1½ tsp vanilla extract
* 400 ml brandy (brandewijn)
== Directions ==
# Beat the yolks, salt and sugar until the mix is creamy and thick.
# Very slowly pour in the brandy, but keep on beating the mixture.
# Pour the mix into a heavy saucepan and heat gently, whisking constantly until the advocaat is warm (not hot) and thick.
# Remove from the heat and pour into a clean bottle.
# The advocaat should be thick enough to scoop with a spoon to eat.
# It usually is served with whipped cream.
# Despite its appearance, advocaat is viewed as a beverage.
