Alyssa Rivers
One bite of these delicious cookies and they became my favorite. After I took the first bite, I instantly wanted to not share them and eat them all myself.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 3/4 cup butter softened
  • 1/2 cup eggnog
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Eggnog Glaze:

  • 1 ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons eggnog

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 300 degrees.
  • Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg.  Set aside.
  • Cream sugar and butter together in mixing bowl.
  • Add eggnog, vanilla, and egg yolks.  Beat at medium speed with a mixer until smooth.
  • Add the flour mixture and beat at low speed until combined.  Do not over-mix.
  • Spoon onto ungreased cookie sheet or parchment paper and make the dough balls rather small because they will spread in the oven.  I always test about 3 cookies in the oven first before making an entire batch.  Sprinkle the cookies with nutmeg.
  • Bake 15-18 minutes, mine took 17, until the edges are lightly brown.
  • While the cookies are in the oven make the glaze by combining the powdered sugar with 3 T eggnog.
  • Drizzle the glaze over your cookies and devour!
