🎄Homemade Eggnog Cookies Recipe 🍪✨

Hello, Lemon8 lovelies! Today, I’m sharing my latest festive baking adventure: Homemade Eggnog Cookies! 🥛🥚✨ They turned out so delicious, but I had a little kitchen mishap that turned into a tasty twist!

I ran out of unsalted butter mid-recipe and had to switch to plant-based butter. Surprisingly, this small change required a bit longer in the oven—about 15-20 minutes to get them just right. So, if you’re sticking with traditional butter, aim for 12-15 minutes on the top rack until the tops are set and the edges start to brown.

For those who love a crunchier bite, feel free to extend the baking time. It’s a simple tweak that customizes the texture from chewy and soft to crisp and hearty.

Swipe up for the full recipe and don't forget to share your versions! 📸💕

Eggnog cookies are a delightful holiday treat that combine the rich flavors of eggnog with the satisfying texture of cookies. To make them, you’ll need ingredients such as all-purpose flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and, of course, eggnog. It's essential to cream the sugars with butter until light and fluffy, creating a soft cookie base that complements the spices. To achieve different textures, adjust the baking time: for chewy cookies, bake them for 12-15 minutes, and for crisp ones, extend it to about 20 minutes. These cookies can easily be customized by adding chocolate chips or nuts for extra flavor and texture. Furthermore, if you want to elevate their festive appeal, consider drizzling a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and eggnog on top after baking. Sharing these eggnog cookies at holiday gatherings or gifting them in decorative boxes makes for a perfect seasonal treat. These cookies don’t just taste delicious but evoke the warm, cozy feelings associated with the holiday season. Enjoy baking and don't forget to share your versions with friends and family!

These look delicious!! I’m definitely bookmarking for when I’m home to try and make these!! That’s so interesting that switching to a plant based butter made it take longer in the oven!
