Don’t egg-nore this recipe full of holiday cheer and Homestead eggnog! Eggnog cookies are a good way to use up eggnog you’re not going to drink. This winter snack recipe is great for Christmas parties and holiday get-togethers. The ingredients listed below make about 40 small cookies. You will need a cookie sheet, a whisk, an electric mixer and a small bowl.

Here is how to make this recipe with purpose-fueled food that’s better for the prosperity of our planet and people.


Ingredients

  • ½ cup Homestead eggnog
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup salted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 ¼ cups white sugar
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • ½ tsp. cinnamon 
  • ½ tsp. Nutmeg, plus more for sprinkling on top

Directions

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

In a separate bowl, combine the sugar and softened butter with an electric mixer until smooth. Then, add in the dry ingredients and mix at a low speed until completely combined.

On an ungreased cookie sheet, spoon the dough out one teaspoon at a time spaced 1 inch apart. Sprinkle with extra nutmeg.

Bake for 15 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack. Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to four days.
