Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 1 ½ cups white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup Eggnog
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • Icing:
  • 1 1/4 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons Eggnog
  • 1 tsp Ground Nutmeg

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar with a hand held mixture or stand up mixture. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until smooth. Then add in eggnog and mix until just combined.
  • Combine the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a different bowl.
  • Stir the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture by hand until just combined. Do not over mix these ingredients.
  • Place the cook dough onto a baking sheet with a cookie scoop or spoon.
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes. Edges should be slightly brown. Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet and then move to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • While the cookies are cooling, create the icing by whisking together the powder sugar and eggnog. You can add more powder sugar or eggnog to get the consistency that you prefer for the icing.
  • Top the cookies with the icing once they are cool and sprinkle the nutmeg on top. Enjoy!
