It’s eggnog season, and I couldn’t be any happier! I spend the season trying to find any way to sneak it into my recipes – pancakes, cupcakes, and even sugar cookie icing! For cookies, I love to take a delicious shortcut and use Betty Crocker Sugar Cookies, but making homemade icing gives it a special touch.
Keeping the baking and decorating simple gives me more time to enjoy it with the kids who love getting their hands in there. Holidays are meant for spending time with the kids and making memories together.
This recipe for Eggnog Icing is the perfect topping for drop or cut out sugar cookies. Betty Crocker helps make it easy and tasty!

Instructions
Preheat oven to 375º.
Roll cookie dough into small balls, place on cookie sheet, and flatten lightly with your hand.
Bake according to the package.
Allow cookies to cool completely.
While cookies are cooling, mix up your icing.
Start with cinnamon and powdered sugar, then add eggnog a teaspoon at a time, stirring frequently until the mixture is slightly looser than the consistency of toothpaste.
When cookies are cool, spoon icing over the top to cover, then sprinkle with nutmeg immediately.
Let cookies rest to allow icing to firm up.
Keep cookies in an airtight container for maximum freshness.
