Are you recovering from Thanksgiving yet or are you still in a turkey coma?? Sidebar: turkey coma = a real thing. I won’t get into the details of how tryptophan induces said “coma” (nerd alert!) but trust me, it’s a thing. Personally, my favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner is actually the side dishes, not the turkey so I usually end up in a sweet potato casserole coma. Or cheeseball coma. (For a cheeseball recipe try my Cranberry Pecan Cheeseball.) Or mashed potatoes and gravy coma. Oh those are comas I don’t mind one little bit. Now that turkey day is officially behind us though (ohhh it pains me to say that) I’m in full-blown cookie baking mode. I like cookies any time of year, (um, understatement of the century) but it’s just a fact of life that Christmas time puts me in the mood for every variation of cookie imaginable. Now eggnog…. how do you feel about it? It seems to be a love or hate thing. Or in my case, it’s a little more complicated. I actually believed that I hated eggnog for the past 15 years, ever since my childhood across-the-street neighbors gave me spiked eggnog. And by spiked, I mean mixed with Sprite soda. It was terrible. Absolutely terrible. Bur I’ve recently became re-acquainted with eggnog and now I’m seeing it in a whole new, totally delicious light. Eggnog cupcakes started this party and I’m now inviting some eggnog sugar cookies. It’s BYOF. Bring your own frosting 😉 Speaking of frosting. YUMMMMMMM! This eggnog frosting is cuh-ray-zee good. It’s fluffy and creamy with a hint of cream cheese. Mmmmm. Ah I love it. Eggnog fans, you’re gonna go nuts for these easy sugar eggnog sugar cookies. And if by chance you’re on the fence about eggnog, you will be a die-hard lover after trying one bite of these cookies.
