If you love eggnog, you'll love these!

(super easy, too!)

EggNog Cookies:

1 1/4 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon nutmeg

1 1/4 cup white sugar

3/4 cup butter, softened

1/2 cup eggnog

2 egg yolks

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300*

2. Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

3. Cream sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Add eggnog, vanilla, and egg yolks; beat at medium speed with mixer until smooth. Add flour mixture and beat at low speed just until combined. DO NOT OVERMIX.

4. Drop by teaspoonfulls onto ungreased cookie sheet 1" apart. Sprinkle lightly with nutmeg. Bake 20-23 minutes until bottoms turn light brown.

Enjoy!
