Ingredients
  

  • 1 c. softened butter
  • 1 c. sugar
  • 1 c. eggnog
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 3 and 3/4 c. flour
  • 1 t. baking powder
  • 1 t. baking soda
  • 1/2 t. salt
  • 1/2 t. nutmeg

Frosting:

  • 1 and 1/2 c. powdered sugar
  • 1/4-1/2 c. eggnog (to spreading consistency
  • 1 tsp. light Karo Syrup

Instructions
 

  • Mix together butter and sugar.
  • Add in eggnog and egg.

  • Chill for atleast one hour.
  • Drop by teaspoonfuls (I rolled mine for a second) onto greased baking sheet.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
  • When you pull them out out the oven, push tops with the bottom of a greased flat bottom glass to flatten a bit.
  • Cool on drying rack.
  • Frost with eggnog frosting and sprinkle with nutmeg (the karo syrup makes the frosting harden a bit when dry)
