Eggnog Thumbprint Cookies


Comment – This is the best eggnog cookie recipe ever! I added cinnamon, 2 tsp eggnog and a little more freshly ground nutmeg than was called for in the cookie base recipe. The eggnog butter-cream frosting comes from a different website. It tastes so good and there is a video demo on how to make it on the “Adventures in Cake Decorating blog” (see link below). I will definitely include these cookies on all future Christmas cookie trays. I may try cream cheese instead of butter in the frosting next time to make them less fattening. If you half the frosting recipe you will have just enough filling for one batch of the thumbprint cookies (makes about 40 cookies). I formed the balls for the cookies out of 2 tsp of cookie dough.
