Eggnog Cookies

I have learned something while making these cookies. Eggnog has no middle ground; you either LOVE it, or you HATE it!! To each there own. I happen to be one of those "weirdo's" that LOVE LOVE LOVE Eggnog! I found this recipe for Eggnog Cookies, and I was all like =O WHAT?!?!?!

I knew they HAD to be made!!!! So with a little neighborly support (Thanks J for the eggnog) I made my house smell like warm, comforting eggnog! MMMMMmmmmmmm
