Time 1h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
½ cup eggnog
1 cup white sugar
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup eggnog
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper baking cups.
  • Stir flour, sugar, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together for cupcakes in a medium bowl. Beat 1/2 cup butter in a large bowl until creamy, about 1 minute. Add flour mixture all at once and beat until mixture is crumbly.
  • Add eggs; beat about 30 seconds. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl well and beat until light in color and a bit fluffy, about 1 minute. Scrape the bowl again. Gently beat in eggnog just until combined and batter is silky and smooth. Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops of cupcakes spring back when touched lightly and a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, 25 to 28 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk sugar and flour for frosting in a 2-quart saucepan. Whisk in eggnog and nutmeg until no lumps remain. Turn heat to medium and heat, beating with the whisk until mixture comes to a low boil and thickens enough to coat a spoon. Remove from the heat and scrape mixture into a bowl. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
  • Beat butter and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Pour in the cooled eggnog mixture, beating until light and creamy. If frosting looks curdled or separated, keep beating. It will come together after a few minutes.
  • Spread or pipe frosting onto the cooled cupcakes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your cookies will taste. This means using real butter, fresh eggs, and high-quality spices.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking cookies is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake them at a higher temperature, they will brown too quickly and may burn. If you bake them at a lower temperature, they will take longer to bake and may not be as crispy.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

Eggnog chai cookies with eggnog buttercream frosting are a delicious and festive holiday treat. They are perfect for parties, cookie exchanges, or simply enjoying at home with your family. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make these cookies at home. So what are you waiting for? Give them a try today!
