Eggnog Cookies image

You are going to love these easy Eggnog Cookies with the creamy flavors of eggnog, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves all topped with a light eggnog glaze and a sprinkling of nutmeg and cinnamon. If you are an eggnog fan than these are a must try. I love to include them on my cookie trays this time of year with my Peppermint Chocolate...

EGGNOG COOKIES
2 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg (plus extra for topping)
pinch ground cloves
3/4 c unsalted butter softened (preferably land o lakes)
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c sugar
2 egg yolks
1/2 c eggnog
1 tsp vanilla extract
EGGNOG GLAZE
1 c powdered sugar
2 Tbsp eggnog
1 Tbsp light corn syrup

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cream of tartar, nutmeg and cloves and set aside for a few minutes.
  • 2. Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment or a hand mixer cream butter, sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy; approximately 2 minutes. Reduce mixer to low add egg yolks; mixing just until incorporated. Add the eggnog and vanilla extract mixing on low just until combined. Add the flour mixture in 3 intervals mixing on low just until incorporated; scraping down the side of the bowl and beaters when needed. Cover and refrigerate the dough for 1 1/2-2 hours.

  • 4. Meanwhile in a small bowl whisk together the powdered sugar, eggnog and corn syrup. Using a tables knife or spatula spread the glaze and sprinkle with a very small pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon.
