Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). In a food processor combine cream cheese, 1 cup sugar, flour and eggnog; process until smooth. Blend in eggs, rum and nutmeg. Pour mixture into cooled crust.

Notes
This is a delicious cheesecake for eggnog lovers....the secret to a smooth and creamy cheesecake is to mix the cream cheese in a food processor for a few minutes.......
