I made these with smaller cookie cutters, and had to shorten the baking time a little after the first pan overcooked.. thankfully this recipe makes a LOT of cookies..

They weren't overly sweet, but VERY addictive. Definitely plan on making these again as Christmas gets closer.

I came upon this recipe by accident last year. It took about 15 searches to find it again. So glad I did. People LOVE these cookies! I do too!

Wish I known the frosting would thin as it sat. My frosting was way too wet because I added more eggnog because the frosting was so thick while mixing. They have a nice eggnog flavor. This makes @13 dozen.
