Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Generously butter the bottoms and sides of two small ramekins.
  3. In a mixing bowl, crack an egg and beat it until well combined. Add the eggnog, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and nutmeg, mixing until smooth.
  4. Prepare a water bath by filling a small baking dish with hot water and place it in the preheated oven.
  5. Pour the custard mixture into the ramekins, filling them three-quarters full, and place them in the water bath.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the custards are set but slightly jiggly in the center.
  7. Remove the ramekins from the oven and let them cool. Serve warm or chilled with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg.
