Eggnog Cookies
Servings: 24
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp allspice
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/3 cup eggnog
- 2 egg yolks large
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup sanding sugar optional, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Use a non-stick baking sheet, or lightly spray with non-stick spray if the sheet isn't non-stick.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, allspice, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, mix the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
- Mix in the eggnog, egg yolks, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Scoop out a heaping tablespoon of dough. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set but still soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
