i am a big eggnog fan, and this recipe was just "okay" to me... compared to everything else there was on our christmas treat table, this was the last to be eaten.

Definitely a huge hit with eggnog fans. I halved the recipe and got 2 dozen. Some were bigger than others, so it may be possible to get 3 dozen if all were made smaller.

These cookies are AWESOME!!! They are now a permanent part of our Christmas traditions! My suggestions: Be very careful to not over-mix, and we prefer to sprinkle them with cinnamon (or cinnamon sugar!) rather than nutmeg. Our favorite topping though is Eggnog Icing (1 1/2 cups powdered sugar and 3 T. eggnog mixed slowly together... before it hardens, sprinkle with either nutmeg or cinnamon lightly). With the icing, cookies are slightly sweeter and have more eggnog flavor.

I cut the recipe in half but still accidently used 2 egg yolks. I also used half butter, half margerine, and kept the cinnamon the same (I like cinnamon). Still tasted excellent. I found that it was more difficult to remove the cookies from the sheet the cooler they got. I don't know if it is from my inexperience/ineptitude as a baker, or if it is b/c the cookie sheets i use are rather old (yeah, that's it... blame the cookware ). Anyway, excellent cookies, even my chocolate-loving family likes them.
