Eggnog Cheesecake

I whipped this up for our annual Christmas dinner party. I took a recipe that I've had for many years and switched it up a bit by adding in some dark rum and fresh nutmeg. I'm sure it would taste a little more like eggnog if I were to use brandy and bourbon instead of rum, but rum is all I had in the kitchen :) This cake is light and fluffy, a perfect match for a heavy Christmas feast.
I think the base cake recipe is terrific. I will most likely try it with different flavor combinations so stay tuned.
