I really love the cake-like texture of these eggnog cookies. The edges are slightly crispy. The aroma from nutmeg, cinnamon would fill your house while baking them. These cookies get a rich taste from the eggnog. So make sure you use a good quality full-fat eggnog.

The dough is so good that you can just have a spoonful of it out of the bowl. So you hold on to your temptation.

It prevents the cookies from spreading too much.

Use a small Ice cream scoop to portion the dough. After you scoop out the dough you can let it chill on the cookie tray. Then later freeze them in a ziplock bag.
