Ingredients
  

  • 5 FRESH Egg Yolks
  • 125 gr or 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • pinch Salt
  • 1 Vanilla Bean or 1 healthy tsp. Vanilla extract the Bean leaves seeds, tastes delicious, but looks "rustic"
  • 75 - 80 ml roughly 1/3 cup white Rum
  • 60 ml roughly 1/4 cup Brandy (I use Asbach)
  • 200 gr roughly 1 cup heavy Cream

Instructions
 

  • Get your bottle ready by sterilizing it (wash REALLY hot).
  • Give your funnel a good clean as well
  • In your mixing bowl (by hand or with a mixer)
  • Combine the Egg Yolks, Powdered Sugar and pinch salt.
  • Beat for 10 minutes until it's thick and creamy.
  • If using the Vanilla Bean, cut it open and scrape out the seeds. Add them to the egg yolk mixture.
  • If using Vanilla Extract, just add it in.
  • Add the Rum, Brandy and Cream.
  • Whisk for another 10 minutes
  • Pour the Eierlikör into the clean bottle.
  • Store in the refrigerator, and use within a few days.
  • If it separates, give it a good shake.

Notes

Store in the Refrigerator. Use the Eierlikör within a few days of baking.
