If you love eggnog, you will love these gluten free eggnog cookies! Both the cookies and the frosting have eggnog in them, so you get lots of flavor. These cookies are easy and quick to put together. I like to bake them the day before and then glaze them the next day so they are completely cooled.
Can I freeze eggnog cookies?
Yes! These cookies freeze really well. Just make sure that you give the frosting plenty of time to dry before putting them into a freezer container or they will stick together.
How do I store eggnog cookies?
These cookies are best stored in an air-tight container. Make sure to give the frosting plenty of time to harden and dry before you store them.
How do I make eggnog cookies?
You need to lay your ½ cup of unsalted butter our ahead of time so it is softened. You also want to allow time for these cookies to chill for an hour before baking them. Remember that the cookies need to be completely cooled before you can frost them. Make sure you give yourself sufficient time.

This gluten free eggnog cookies recipe is super easy to make! These are one of my best Christmas recipes. These cookies melt in our mouth! They are soft and chewy with delicous frosting on top. These homemade cookies have just enough spice and lots of eggnog flavor.
Ingredients
2 cups Gluten Free Flour
½ tsp. Baking Soda
½ tsp. Baking Powder
½ tsp. Cream of Tarter
½ tsp. Ground Nutmeg
½ cup Unsalted Butter, softened
½ cup Brown Sugar
½ cup Granulated Sugar
1 large Egg
⅛ cup Eggnog
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line three baking sheets with parchment paper.
In the bowl of your stand mixer, beat together the butter, brown sugar, sugar, egg, eggnog and vanilla until creamy and blended well.
In a bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cream of tarter and nutmeg. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until well blended.
Chill the dough for up to two hours. The dough will need to be firm so you can roll it into balls.
Once the dough is chilled, roll the dough into 1 inch balls and then flatten slightly with the palm of your hand.
Bake the cookies for 10 minutes at 350 degrees.
Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them.
