Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, stir or whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and set aside.
- Beat cream cheese, butter and sour cream (or Greek yogurt) with a mixer until creamy.
- With mixer on low, slowly pour in sugar and cream mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides occasionally, about 2-3 minutes. Add the egg, eggnog and vanilla mixing on low until combined.
- With the mixer on low/stir, gradually add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The dough will be very sticky, or gooey! Chill at least 30 minutes, longer if possible.
- Preheat the oven to 350F degrees; line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-stick spray. Using a small or medium cookie scoop, Form the dough into roughly 1-inch balls and roll in powdered sugar.
- I suggest you roll them all and place them all on one (lined) cookie sheet and return to fridge, pulling off only those you are baking. When baking place 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges have set and tops are just barely set, you don't want to over bake these cookies, they will firm up as they cool.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- If desired make up a batch of browned butter glaze and drizzle on top of cooled cookies, top cookies with a little fresh grated nutmeg.
