Preparation: 10 minutes

Cooking: 12 minutes

Total: 22 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup eggnog
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup powdered sugar, for rolling

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Mix in the eggnog and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
