Two holiday classics—eggnog and spritz cookies—come together for a festive treat you’ll want to make year after year. Warm spices and rum flavor bring this holiday treat to life.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp rum or rum extract
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- ½ tsp salt
Steps
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 or 3 cookie sheets with parchment. In a large bowl, with a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the butter and sugar on medium-high 2–3 min., until smooth and fluffy, scraping bowl as needed. Add the egg, rum, and vanilla. Beat 1 min., until combined.
- Reduce mixer speed to low. Add the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Beat 1–2 min., until incorporated. Set up a cookie press with a decorative plate and transfer dough to cookie press. (If you don’t have a cookie press, use a leveled tablespoon to scoop rounds onto cookie sheets.) Press cookies out onto parchment-lined baking sheets at least 1 inch apart.
- Bake cookies 7–9 min., until edges are very lightly browned. Let cool on cookie sheets 5 min., then transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
