We frequently jokingly refer to this as drink ''advocaat from the demon'', because once you begin nipping only at that sweet nectar, you can't subdue the longing to possess more. Enjoy like a thick, periodic tipple, pour over vanilla frozen treats or use like a filling out desserts, pastries and cakes. Proost!
An email about consistency: The Nederlander prefer their advocaat thicker than you enables you to. So thick, actually, that you could - actually, must - eat it having a spoon. If you need a thinner consistency, add a little bit of cream.
Ingredients
- 10 egg yolks
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/3 cups sugar (250 g)
- 1 1/2 cups brandy or cognac (350 ml)
- 2 teaspoon vanilla flavoring

Preparation
Beat the egg yolks, salt and sugar until thickened. Gradually trickle within the brandy, while still beating. Pour the mix right into a saucepan and warm on the low heat, continuously whisking. You should have patience here. The advocaat is prepared if this's nicely thickened and hot, although not boiling (!), if it boils, the alcohol will evaporate. Now take away the saucepan in the heat and whisk with the vanilla flavoring.
