Instructions
Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl for 2-3 minutes until creamy and light.
- Add the egg yolks, vanilla, and rum extracts, then beat again. Stop and scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl then add the eggnog and mix again.
- Add the flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon, then mix until combined, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl again.
- Use a small cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them a couple inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until set so they stay nice and soft, but they shouldn't brown much around the edges. Cool completely.
Frosting
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, eggnog, rum extract, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar together until creamy and light, about 2-3 minutes. Be sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl.
- Frost the cookies with a knife or by transferring the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a decorative tip. Sprinkle with additional grated nutmeg before serving.
