Method
Crust
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Form crust
Press the crust mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie plate to form an even crust.
Bake crust
Bake the crust for 8–10 minutes until set and lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely before filling.
Filling
Prepare filling base
In a mixer or with a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Add sugar
Gradually add 3/4 cup sugar and beat until fluffy and fully incorporated.
Add eggs
Add eggs one at a time, beating just until combined after each addition.
Incorporate flavors
Slowly whisk in the eggnog, then add vanilla, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
Fill crust
Pour the filling mixture into the cooled crust, ensuring even distribution.
Bake filling
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40–50 minutes, or until the center is just slightly jiggle-y. The edges should be set.
Cool before chilling
Remove from oven and let the pie cool on a rack to room temperature.
Chill and serve
Chill
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to ensure a clean slice.
Make whipped topping
Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
Finish and garnish
Spread or pipe whipped cream over the chilled pie and garnish with a light dusting of cinnamon or nutmeg.
