6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 tbsp granulated sugar
For the filling:
2 cups eggnog (store-bought or homemade)
⅔ cup granulated sugar
3 large egg yolks
¼ cup cornstarch

Instructions
1. Make the crust:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until combined.
Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish.
Bake for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
2. Prepare the filling:
In a medium saucepan, whisk together eggnog, sugar, egg yolks, cornstarch, and nutmeg.
Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency (about 8-10 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and RSO. Mix thoroughly.
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top.
3. Chill:
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until set.
4. Make the whipped topping:
Beat heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the chilled pie.
5. Serve:
Sprinkle with nutmeg before serving for a festive touch.
