Cooks always like to know they have served their guests something different than the usual but that is also tasty. If you are having overnight guests during the holidays or you are planning a holiday brunch serve your guests these Eggnog Pancakes. Using boxed mix and commercially prepared eggnog, making these little treats is quick and easy. Or make this Easy Ham and Cheese Quiche. The quiche goes together quickly and leaves you free to visit while it bakes for 45 minutes.
EASY HAM AND CHEESE QUICHE
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup melted butter
1/4 tsp salt
dash of pepper
3 eggs
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup cubed ham
1/2 cup biscuit baking mix
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 or 10-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
In a medium bowl combine the milk, butter, salt and pepper. Lightly beat the eggs and add to the milk mixture. Add the biscuit mix and stir until well blended. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie plate; sprinkle with the Swiss cheese and ham. Using the back of a large spoon, gently press the ham and cheese into the mixture.
Bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Let stand for about 10 minutes before cutting to serve.
EGGNOG PANCAKES
2 cups boxed pancake mix
1 egg
1 1/2 cups commercially prepared eggnog
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Lightly grease griddle and turn heat on so it will be hot for cooking. Put pancake mix into a medium mixing bowl. In a seperate bowl, whisk egg, eggnog, vanilla and nutmeg together.
