Ingredients

2 1/4 cups Flour
2 teaspoons Baking powder
1 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
Pinch Ground cloves
3/4 cup Salted butter softened
3/4 cup Granulated sugar
1/2 cup Brown sugar
2 large Eggs
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
1 tablespoon Rum extract you can substitute with dark rum if you prefer
1/2 cup Eggnog
2 cups White chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a bowl combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves. Stir until well combined.
In the bowl of your stand mixer add the softened butter and granulated and brown sugar. Cream together with the paddle attachment until well combined.
Add the eggs, vanilla extract and rum extract, and eggnog to the butter mixture and continue mixing until well combined.
Slowly add your dry ingredients to the butter mixture , ½ cup at a time, letting the flour mix in between before adding the next ½ cup.
Once the dough has come together add in the white chocolate chips, stirring until they are fully mixed into the dough.
Let the dough chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Once chilled scoop out the dough, 1 rounded tablespoon per cookie, and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave about 2 inches in between each ball as the dough will spread slightly as it bakes.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-13 minutes or until edges are golden. Note: we do not recommend placing multiple baking sheets in the oven unless they are side-by-side.
When the cookies have finished baking let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
When your cookies have cooled serve with a big glass of eggnog or package in an airtight container until you’re ready to serve.
