Ingredients
Dough
- ½ cup Butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon rum extract
- ½ cup eggnog
- 2¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
Sugar Mixture for Rolling
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon
- ½ tsp nutmeg
Icing
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 tablespoons eggnog
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two large baking sheets with parchment or spray with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat butter and 1 cup sugar, until light and fluffy. Add the egg, rum extract, and eggnog, and mix to combine. Add the flour, salt, baking soda, and nutmeg, and mix until a soft dough forms.
- In a small bowl, whisk the ½ cup sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Scoop the dough into one-inch balls and roll in the sugar mixture. Place on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly browned on the bottom. Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then move to a cooling rack.
Icing
- While the cookies are cooling, whisk the powdered sugar and enough eggnog to make an icing that is easy to drizzle but not too runny. Pipe snowflakes onto the cooled cookies, or drizzle with the icing.
Notes
- Recipe Tips.
- Store cookie dough. Cover and store the dough from this snickerdoodle recipe in the fridge for 1-2 days. See How to Freeze Cookie Dough for tips.
- Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. Store in a freezer bag, or air-tight container in the freezer for up to 4 months.
- If the dough is sticky to work with, simply chill it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- This recipe makes a puffy snickerdoodle. If you wish, you can gently press down the cookie dough balls before baking them for a flatter cookie.
