Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup eggnog
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- For the Eggnog Glaze:
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup eggnog
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of ground nutmeg
Instructions:
Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar in a large bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy
One egg at a time, beat in the eggnog, vanilla extract, and eggs, making sure to mix well after each addition
Mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves together in a different bowl using a whisk
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until they are just combined
Do not mix too much
Put the dough in the fridge for at least an hour with the lid on
Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on baking sheets
Take dough balls about the size of a tablespoon and roll them into balls
Dont put them all on the baking sheets at once; leave some space between each one
With the back of a glass or your fingers, make each dough ball a little flatter
After the oven is hot, bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden
After baking, let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets
Then, move them to a wire rack to cool completely
To make the eggnog glaze, put the powdered sugar, eggnog, vanilla extract, and a pinch of nutmeg in a bowl and mix them smooth with a whisk
Once the cookies are cool enough to touch, drizzle the eggnog glaze over each one
Wait for the glaze to set up before you serve
With eggnog or your favorite warm drink, these Spiced Eggnog Cookies are a great treat
