Ingredients
Scale
2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon (plus extra for rolling)
½ tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp salt
¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
¾ cup eggnog
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about three minutes).
Beat in eggs one at a time followed by the eggnog until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
In a small bowl, combine additional granulated sugar with cinnamon for rolling. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough and roll each ball in this mixture before placing them on lined baking sheets.
Bake for about 10–12 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft. Let cool slightly before enjoying.
