Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup eggnog
1 cup powdered sugar for rolling the cookies
1. Mix together the flour, cornstarch, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
2. Cream together the butter and sugar. Beat in the eggnog.
3. Add the flour mixture gradually until well combines. Cover and refrigerate for an hour or until the dough is firm.
4. Preheat the oven to 350 and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
5. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls and place on the baking sheet about 1 inch apart.
6. Bake 12-14 minutes. Remove to a wire rack and cool for about 5 minutes and then roll them in powdered sugar. Makes about 3 dozen.
**************** MY NOTES : These came out bland and I could not taste egg nog in them at all. In an attempt to salvage them I mix in a tsp of rum extract. 1/2 tsp some nutmeg, and about 1/4 tsp cinnamon. Also rolled them in a mix of the powdered sugar with some nutmeg mixed in and about a good tablespoon of cinnamon mixed in with the powdered sugar. That definitely helped but I'm still not impressed with these at all!!!
