Combine 2 cups flour, yeast and nutmeg; add warm eggnog mixture, and mix well. Add eggs and beat at low speed with an electric mixer 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly; beat at high speed an additional 3 minutes. Stir in remaining 1 1/3 cups flour, mixing well. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and chill at least 2 to 3 hours. Punch down dough, and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Cover and let rest 10 minutes. Roll to 1/3-inch thickness, and cut with a floured doughnut cutter. Place doughnuts several inches apart on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85 degrees F), free from drafts, about 45 to 50 minutes, until very light. Heat 2 inches of oil in a large skillet to 375 degrees F. Add doughnuts, a few at a time, and fry 1 1/2 to 2 minutes until golden brown on both sides, turning once. Drain well on paper towels. While still warm, dip top of each in Eggnog Glaze.
