XOXO,

Jenn i was wondering if you could halve this recipe?would cooking time change?And what size of crockpot would you use. Thanks
Hello Coreen! You can certainly halve the recipe or even double and sometimes triple a recipe! The size of the crock pot depends on the contents of the recipe! As a rule of thumb, you use the same temperature, high or low, depending on the recipe, but the crock should be 2/3 to 3/4 full to crock properly. This is a great question, and thanks for asking! Happy Crocking!
I had bariatric surgery and cannot tolerate alcohol. Do you think I could just add like maybe milk or extra water and rum extract. Would it come out the same?
Hi Margaret, So sorry to hear of your surgery, hope you are on the road to recovery! You are welcome to use any of the suggested alternatives, but not really sure if it would be the same. I would use the rum extract with one of the other two alternatives, and please let me know how it turned out. Happy Crocking!
could you possibly use apple juice and make it cider type drink?
Brandi I have not made it that way, but did you see my recipe on getcrocked.com… This is just one of several.. http://www.getcrocked.com/?p=8617 Happy Crocking!
If you can not have alcohol, then look at the ingredients list of extracts…
They are mostly alcohol with some sugar. In other words, you’d substitute rum with something that is about the same proof.
If you really want the rum flavor, try adding it in the beginning when the recipe says not to so the stuff you can’t have will evaporate.
-Just to make sure someone doesn’t hurt themselves.
What type of rum? Spiced, white, dark?
This is so good! I believe it is up to you, but when I make it we like the white rum! Happy Crocking!
Salted or unsalted butter?
Tina I guess it all depends on how you like it, but when I made it I used unsalted…. Happy Crocking!
6 whole cloves of what???
Susan, cloves is the spice, and sometimes you can purchased in ground, but this particular recipe calls for the whole clove and not ground. Happy Crocking!
Question: I saw 2 qts. water in recipe. Said to add all but rum cream and extra nutmeg. THEN said add 2 qts HOT water. So 4 qts in all? Or two!? I can be oblivious to the obvious so excuse me if I missed a crucial point,I just got confused.
Denise I have reworded the instructions and hope this answers your question! Happy Crocking!
Is it 4 cups of water total, or is the original 2 qts what you’re talking about in Step 2?
It is two (2) Quarts of water for step two! Delicious!
How long would you cook it on the stove top? I ran out of time to make it this way 🙁 I’m cooking it at medium I figured for 2 hours and them adding the other ingredients?
Hi:) This is going to be perfect for my Turkey Day get together. I just wanted to clarify… if I follow this exactly about how many servings will I have for my guest. I am having 20 people so just wanted to make sure I would have enough for everyone. I am using small mugs but wanted to double check!
Thanks so much!
Hey Sarah! You will find the serving size for each recipe in the upper right hand corner of each page, but happy to share this recipe serves 15, so you may want to make it 1 1/2 times the recipe to make sure you have enough, or even double, guarantee some will want doubles. 🙂
