Christmas Come Early...or Late: Eggnog Cookies

Yes, I know Christmas was two months ago but these cookies are just too good to pass up. At least this way you'll have this recipe in time for Christmas 2012.

These cookies are really good, are super easy to make, and make the kitchen smell FANTASTIC!!!! Enjoy!

EGGNOG COOKIES:

1 1/4 cups white sugar
3/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup eggnog
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cream sugar and butter until light. Add eggnog, vanilla, and egg yolks; beat at medium speed with mixer until smooth. Add flour mixture and beat at low speed until just combined. Do not overmix. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet one inch apart. Sprikle lightly with nutmeg. Bake 20 to 23 minutes until bottoms turn light brown.
