Ingredients
For the cookies:
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Rum Flavoring
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ cup egg nog
- 1 cup Finely chopped pecans
For the topping:
- 1 ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 4 Tablespoons egg nog
- ¼ cup finely chopped Fisher Pecans
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
Instructions
- For the cookies, combine butter and powdered sugar in large mixing bowl. Beat until fully combined. Add in salt, flour, cornstarch, rum, nutmeg and egg nog. Beat until it becomes a soft dough. Fold in chopped pecans.
- Drop by large tablespoon into a greased mini muffin pan. Bake for for 13-15 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
- Remove and lightly press each top with a tart shaper (a water bottle cap would work too!). Just enough to give a small indent. Allow to cool in pans about 10 minutes. Remove and cool completely on wire rack.
- For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar with egg nog until combined. Drop a small teaspoon on top of each cooled cookie cup. Immediately sprinkle with chopped pecans and a pinch of nutmeg. Allow to set, about 15 minutes. ENJOY!
Notes
- Use a tart shaper (or your thumb) to make an indent in the top of each cookie as they come out of the oven.
- Let the eggnog glaze set for about 15 minutes before serving these pecan cookies.
- Use store bought or homemade eggnog in this recipe.
- Store cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Enjoy within one week for best taste.
- Let butter soften at room temperature before using for easiest mixing.
- Have leftover eggnog in the carton after making these? Make some Eggnog Fudge too!
