12 Days of Cookies - Day 3

Eggnog Cookies
Estimated Times:
Preparation - 5 min | Cooking - 14 min | Yields - 18 cookies (1 1/2 dozen)

We make it easy by starting with our refrigerated tub dough and adding the essence of eggnog, that classic combination of nutmeg and sugar. We’ve added a touch of cinnamon too!

Ingredients:

Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 325º F.

STIR cinnamon and nutmeg into cookie dough. Refrigerate for 15 minutes for easier handling. Roll dough into 18, 1-inch balls; dip in sugar. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.

BAKE for 14 to 16 minutes or until edges are set but centers are still soft. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

TIPS:
• Dip eggnog cookies halfway into melted NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Premier White Morsels.
• Shake off excess; refrigerate. Recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for a larger batch.
• Create three types of Christmas cookies from just one tub of NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Refrigerated Sugar Cookie Tub Dough. Make this recipe along with two other 12 Days of Christmas Cookies recipes.
• Recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for a larger batch.
