Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 Egg
- 0.5 cup Eggnog
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Eggnog (for glaze)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the egg, eggnog, and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground nutmeg, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until combined and a soft dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and divide it into two equal halves.
Roll each half into a long rectangle about 1/2-inch thick. Using a knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into sticks approximately 1 inch wide and 4 inches long.
Place the sticks about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the sticks to cool completely on a wire rack.
To make the glaze, whisk the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of eggnog together until smooth.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled eggnog sticks and sprinkle with a pinch of ground cinnamon for garnish.
Let the glaze set before serving. Enjoy your delicious Eggnog Sticks!
