Egg Nog Cookies

Looking for a cookie that is easy and tastes great, but that isn't uber sweet? This is it! They taste great.

• 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 (I actually didn't have nutmeg I found out when I went to add it to the already mixed mixture, so I put in ground cloves. The cookies still turned out great.)
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1. 1Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
2. 2Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg.
3. 3Cream sugar and butter until light.
4. 4Add eggnog, vanilla, and egg yolks; beat at medium speed with mixer until smooth.
5. 5Add flour mixture and beat at low speed until just combined.
6. 6Do not overmix. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
7. 7Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet 1 inch apart.
8. 8Sprinkle lightly with nutmeg. (Instead of doing this, I sprinkled them with colored sugar crystals)
9. 9The recipe says to bake 20 to 23 minutes until bottoms turn light brown, but I only baked them about 8-12 minutes and they were done.
