Chewy Eggnog Cookies

These are amazingly soft and chewy eggnog cookies that I'm sure you will enjoy.

Ingredients

• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup white sugar
• 0.5 cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon rum extract
• 0.5 cup vegan eggnog
• 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
• 3 ½ tablespoons vegan eggnog, or to taste
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon, or to taste

Steps

1. Prepare cookies: Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.
2. Cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a separate bowl until fluffy. Add eggs, vanilla, and rum extract; mix until combined. Mix in eggnog. Mix in flour mixture, a little at a time, until fully incorporated; try not to overmix. Place dough in the refrigerator to cool for about 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
4. Drop about 2 tablespoons of chilled dough for each cookie onto the prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake in the preheated oven just until the edges start to turn golden brown. Cool on the baking sheet for 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
6. While the cookies are cooling, whisk powdered sugar and eggnog for glaze together. Add more or less eggnog until you get the desired consistency. Glaze the cooled cookies and sprinkle with cinnamon.
