How to Make Eggnog Santa Cut Outs
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
- 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, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the dough in half, wrap each half in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one half of the dough at a time to ¼-inch thickness.
- Use cookie cutters to cut out Santa shapes or your favorite holiday designs.
- Place cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on baking sheets before frosting or decorating.
- Decorate with your favorite icing, sprinkles, and candies!
