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.

I hate to be the grinch, but this cookie dough was horrible- I had to add so much extra flour that it was ridiculous. The dough was so wet and very very hard to work with. Never Again-SORRY!!! 1 star

Made this today and it turned out great! Cookies were almost cakelike with a great flavor. House smelled fantastic and ready for the holidays! 5 stars

I found this recipe 5 years ago and am so glad I did! I now make several batches every Christmas season. My family and friends LOVE them and can not get enough!! I usually double the amount of nutmeg just to add more flavour. 5 stars

These are my favorite cookies to make at Christmas. I've been making these for years. Everyone that I make them for absolutely love them. Tehy may be a bit time consuming to make , but are well worth the work. 5 stars
