  2. 2. Cream sugar, pudding mix and butter for 2 minutes.
  3. 3. Add eggs and vanilla and mix again.
  4. 4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. Add half of these dry ingredients to the sugar mixture.
  5. 5. Add eggnog and then add the rest of the dry ingredients.
  6. 6. Fold in cranberries. Don't overmix. (The batter will be pretty thick.)
