Ingredients
Eggnog Cookies
- ¾ cup cold unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup eggnog
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups flour all purpose or gluten free flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- pinch sea salt optional
- ¾ tsp nutmeg
- ½ tsp cinnamon
Icing
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp eggnog
- pinch nutmeg
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cold butter and sugar. Mix on high for 2 to 3 minutes, until no clumps of butter remain.
- Add in eggnog. Stir to combine.
- Then, add in egg yolks and vanilla. Stir to combine.
- Add in flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon. Stir until combined.
- Use an ice cream scooper to scoop balls of dough onto lined pan. Spread apart at least 3 inches.
- Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until edges are softly golden brown.
- Remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully transfer to a cooling rack.
- Once cookies have completely cooled, make icing. Combine powdered sugar, eggnog, and nutmeg in bowl. Stir to combine.
- Add icing to fully cooled cookies. Serve!
Notes
- Use cold butter right from the fridge. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too thin.
- Both store bought and homemade eggnog can be used.
- Both regular all purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour can be used. Do not use another flour.
- The cookie dough will be thick.
- Use an ice cream scooper to scoop dough balls. This ensures they are round and evenly shaped.
- Do not bake too long. Mine were perfect at 10 minutes.
- Wait until cookies are fully cooled before adding icing.
- If your icing is too thin, add more powdered sugar. If it is too thick, add more eggnog.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Freeze for 1 month.
