Preheat the oven to 325ºF. LIne two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large bowl using a handheld mixer beat the butter on high speed until creamy. &nbsp;Add the icing sugar, cornstarch, flour, nutmeg, and cinnamon and turn the mixer onto low speed at first and then increase the speed to high and beat until mixture is fluffy and light in color.

Roll the cookie dough into balls about 1-inch in diameter placing 12 cookies on each pan. &nbsp;Bake the cookies one pan at a time for 24 minutes or until their undersides are lightly golden brown.

Place the extra icing sugar in a small bowl and roll each cookie in the icing sugar to coat as soon as they come out of the oven being careful not to burn yourself or break the cookies.

Instructions for Eggnog Frosting

Eggnog cookies are a delicious soft and chewy holiday cookie with a perfect crackly top. They are made with eggnog, spiced warmly with cinnamon and nutmeg, and have a drizzle of homemade eggnog glaze on top. The coziest Christmas cookie ever!

(360 grams) all-purpose flour

teaspoon baking soda

teaspoon baking powder

teaspoon salt

teaspoon nutmeg

teaspoon cinnamon

(227 grams) unsalted butter, melted

(165 grams) dark brown sugar

(150 grams) granulated sugar

(60 grams) eggnog

large egg yolks

teaspoon vanilla extract

(120 grams) confectioners' sugar

Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare 3 half sheet baking pans with parchment paper (or one, if working in batches).

In a large mixing bowl, add flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Whisk well to combine, then set aside.

In another large mixing bowl, add melted butter, brown sugar, white sugar, eggnog, egg yolks, and vanilla. Beat with a hand mixer or whisk until well combined and smooth.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low speed until combined, scraping down the edges of the bowl. Ensure the batter is well combined, but do not overmix. 

Using your hands or a cookie scoop, scoop 2 tablespoons of cookie dough. Place the cookie balls evenly onto the baking sheets, spacing them 2-3 inches apart (I do about 6 per sheet).

Place the cookies into the oven and bake for 11-13 minutes, until the edges are set. Allow the cookies to cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring onto a wire rack to fully cool before glazing.

Make the eggnog cookies:

Add all of the ingredients (confectioners' sugar, eggnog, and nutmeg) to a medium mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.

Using a spoon, drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies. Allow the glaze to set for an hour before enjoying. 

Make the eggnog glaze:

Made these for the annual cookie exchange at work. All my coworkers loved it!

Eggnog Sugar Cookies

baking soda

Maraschino cherries

eggnog (as needed)

Rum extract (optional)

Preheat oven to 350F.

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until light and whipped, about 2 minutes. Add the eggnog and rum extract and beat until combined.

In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg and salt. Slowly beat the dry ingredients in the butter mixture until fully incorporated.

Use a cookie scoop to portion out the cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets. Press a maraschino cherry into the center of each cookie dough ball.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, until just lightly golden brown on the edges.

Allow the cookies to cool completely before adding the optional drizzle.

To make the drizzle, combine the powdered icing sugar, nutmeg and 2 Tablespoons of eggnog. Add the rum extract, if using. Beat until fully combined, adding more eggnog as needed to achieve a thick yet runny consistency.

Scoop the drizzle mixture into a piping bag and make a small snip at the end. Drizzle over the cookies. Allow the drizzle to set before eating or storing.

You can roll each ball in your hands for a more finished look but this is optional. Bake in the center rack at 350F for 11-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the center appears dry.

While the cookies are baking mix the glaze up. Add a cup of powdered sugar to a medium bowl along with the cinnamon and nutmeg then drizzle in 3 tablespoons of eggnog and 1 tsp of vanilla. Whisk together adding a tablespoon at a time of eggnog as needed to achieve a drizzling consistency.

Eggnog Cookies Recipe

flour (0.52)

salt (0.01)

nutmeg (0.55)

cinnamon (0.04)

tsp baking powder (0.04)

tsp baking soda (0.01)

unsalted butter, softened (2.13)

vanilla extract (0.29)

½ tsp rum extract (0.18)

unsalted butter, softened (0.53)

¼ tsp rum extract (0.09)

Tbsp heavy cream (0.30)

Preheat

Preheat oven to 350F. In mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda. Whisk to combine and set aside.

Cream

Add the room temperature softened unsalted butter and 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar to a mixing bowl. Cream them together with hand mixer on low speed.

Beat

Beat the egg, vanilla, and rum extract together and add to the butter/sugar mixture. Mix on low until combined.

Slowly add all the dry ingredients to wet mixture and mix until a sticky dough forms.

Chill

Chill the dough for 20-30 minutes. Then, using a 1 oz cookie scoop, portion cookies and roll each into a ball in your hands. Toss each ball in the remaining ¼ cup granulated sugar.

Flatten

On a parchment-lined baking sheet, place the dough balls 2 inches apart and flatten slightly with the bottom of a clean cup.

Bake

Bake for 8-10 minutes. Let them cool completely before frosting, for about 10 minutes.

To make the icing, add powdered sugar, softened unsalted butter, vanilla extract, rum extract, and heavy cream to a mixing bowl and mix on medium-high with a hand mixer until smoothly whipped and creamy.

Spread

Transfer icing to a piping bag (or a ziplock bag with one of the corners snipped off!) and frost each cookie. Alternatively, you can smooth the frosting on each cookie by hand with a butter knife. Enjoy!

These are delicious! I think I would double the icing- maybe because my cookies were a little smaller, so there were more of them.

Oh wow!!  I love these flavors and festive cookies!!  My family loved them and we made some for gifts too!
