Tips:
- Use fresh eggnog. Fresh eggnog will give your spritz cookies the best flavor.
- 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 until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before glazing. This will help the glaze set properly.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. The cookies will stay fresh for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Glazed eggnog spritz cookies are a delicious and festive holiday treat. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their sweet and tangy flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit at your next holiday party.
