Comment préparer Eggnog Snowman Cookies
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add ⅓ cup eggnog, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional), and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a log (about 1 ½ inches in diameter), wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one dough log to ¼ inch thickness. Use a 3-4 inch snowman-shaped cookie cutter to cut out cookies.
- Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let cookies cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cookies are baking, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat ½ cup (1 stick) softened butter with 3 cups powdered sugar until smooth. Gradually add 2-4 tablespoons eggnog until desired consistency is reached. Divide frosting and tint a portion with food coloring.
- Once cookies are completely cool, frost the snowmen with white frosting.
- Decorate with tinted frosting, mini chocolate chips (for eyes and buttons), and a toothpick for creating wavy frosting lines.
