Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease and flour a bundt pan, ensuring all crevices are well-coated.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground nutmeg. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.
With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the dry ingredients and the eggnog to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix only until just combined.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cake cools, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of eggnog until smooth and pourable. If the glaze is too thick, add more eggnog, one teaspoon at a time.
Once the cake is completely cooled, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top of the cake, allowing it to cascade down the sides.
Sprinkle the top with a pinch of ground nutmeg for garnish. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
