Eggnog Kringla

Makes about 60

4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
3/4 cup butter (do not use margarine)
1-1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 cup dairy or nondairy eggnog
sifted powder sugar
ground nutmeg

In large bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and nutmeg. Set aside. In large mixing bowl, cream butter, about 30 seconds. Add the sugar and beat until fluffy. Add egg and mix well. Add the flour mix and eggnog alternately to the sugar/butter mix. Cover and chill at least 4 hours. Dough may still be sticky but it is a soft dough.

Preheat oven to 350F. Take out half the dough at a time (leaving rest in the fridge). On a lightly floured surface, take one tablespoon of the dough and roll into a rope shape (about 1/2 inch thick and 8 inches long) On an ungreased cookie sheet, place the rope in a loop, cross one end over the other. Make the shape slightly oval. Bake 6 to 8 minutes, until edges are lightly browned. Remove cookies and cool on wire rack. While still warm, sprinkle tops with powdered sugar and nutmeg.

This is my third Christmas using this recipe. All my friends and family love it. I can't think of a higher praise. You must love egg nog and enjoy a subtle cookie, it is not spicy. Thanks. five stars

If you like eggnog you'll love this cookie! I used Silk Soy Nog in these instead of the regular dairy eggnog and the cookies still turned out moist and delicious. I was able to roll the dough and cut simple shapes out with cookie cutters,instead of making the loops that were suggested, and they looked and tasted wonderful. They also freeze well. I will definately make this again! five stars

I tried making this cookies tonight, they turns out very very very blend. My 3 year old (he usually LOVES cookies) took a bite and gave it right back to me. I ended up adding almonds, m & m, pine nuts to the remaining batches, hoping to make them more interesting. two stars

This is a wonderful soft cookie that is easy to make and everyone loved. They were gone by the next day! You can really taste the eggnog even though I used light. five stars
