These White Chocolate Dipped Eggnog Cookies bake up soft, full of eggnog flavor, and have hints of creamy white chocolate nestled on top!

White Chocolate Eggnog Cookies on a white plate

We’re officially a full week into December, which means that we’re inching closer and closer to the holidays.

Besides Christmas trees, presents, and countless baked goods on overdrive, the holiday season brings one of my favorite things: eggnog! Smooth, creamy, and packed with an irresistible taste, it always reminds me of Christmas.

Eggnog also reminds me of the movies Home Alone and Christmas Vacation. Why? Well at the beginning of Home Alone, Kevin’s dad comes down the stairs and tells the “police officer” to get some eggnog. And I always hear Joe Pesci’s voice in my head saying “eggnog….eggnog?!” Maybe it’s just me?

Or how about in Christmas Vacation, when Clark and Eddie are standing by the Christmas tree drinking eggnog out of their moose mugs? Love it!

Are you a fan of eggnog? While I love the taste of it, I can only drink a little as it’s too rich for me. I usually end up buying a half gallon and then not finishing it, as the hubster will only drink a small amount, too.

But I finally figured out a way to get the most out of eggnog! Yep, you guessed it…by baking these White Chocolate-Dipped Eggnog Cookies!

I’m sure you’ve seen dozens of eggnog cookies floating around Pinterest world within the past few months. So in order to make these White Chocolate Dipped Eggnog Cookies stand out, I experimented with a lot of flavors and my favorite ingredient, white chocolate!

A soft and chewy cookie, filled with a rich eggnog flavor and spices, with creamy white chocolate nestled on top. This just screams Christmas to me. Agreed?

Even if you’re not a fan of eggnog, I guarantee you’ll love the sweet taste of these cookies. And guys, these White Chocolate Dipped Eggnog Cookies are so delicious!

Dare I say they’re my favorite Christmas cookie as of yet? They came out thick, soft, and chewy, which is a requirement for these cookies. And they’re bursting with flavor , while filled with a subtle white chocolate glaze. Have I convinced you to make these cookies yet?

What’s in Eggnog Cookies? 

To make this easy eggnog dessert, you’ll need the following ingredients: 

  • All-purpose flour
  • Baking powder
  • Cinnamon and nutmeg
  • Unsalted butter
  • Granulated sugar
  • Light brown sugar
  • Vanilla bean paste (or extract)
  • Egg yolks
  • Eggnog 
  • White chocolate melting wafers 

How to Make Eggnog Cookies

These eggnog sugar cookies bake up in no time! From start to finish, you’ll have these cuties mixed, baked, and devoured in less than an hour. Can’t get much better than that, friends!

  1. In a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
  2. In another bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Add in egg yolks and vanilla.
  3. Pour in eggnog and beat until mixture is creamy.
  4. Slowly add the flour mixture to the eggnog mixture.
  5. Chill dough for at least 15 minutes.
  6. Once dough is chilled, drop by heaping spoonfuls onto baking pans.
  7. Bake until the cookies are lightly browned but still soft. 
  8. When cookies have cooled, melt the white chocolate.
  9. Working one cookie at a time, dip halfway into white chocolate and then place on parchment paper to set. Sprinkle tops of white chocolate with nutmeg, if desired.

How to Store These Cookies

These eggnog sugar cookies should be stored at room temperature in an airtight container. They’ll last up to 5 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months. 

What Type of Eggnog Should I Use? 

You can use regular or non-alcoholic, whichever you prefer! 

Tips for Making Eggnog Sugar Cookies

  • It is important not to overbake cookies. You will want to remove them from oven when still soft on top! 
  • I’ve only made this recipe as written, so I can’t speak to the best way to make these dairy-free, gluten-free, etc. 
  • If you don’t have time to dip all the cookies in white chocolate, drizzle it over top instead! 

Instead of letting that extra eggnog go to waste, whip up a batch of these White Chocolate Dipped Eggnog Cookies! Easy to make and full of flavor, these will become your new favorite holiday treat!

Servings 30 cookies
Calories 157.4kcal

Ingredients

  • 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1½ teaspoons ground nutmeg
  • ¾ cups unsalted butter , softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • ½ cup eggnog
  • 8 ounces white chocolate melting wafers (I like Ghirardelli ones; or white chocolate chips)
  • Nutmeg for garnish , if desired

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking pans with silpat mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer with fitted paddle attachment, cream until fluffy. Add in egg yolks and vanilla, stir until smooth.
  • Pour in eggnog and beat until mixture is creamy. Slowly add in flour mixture to the eggnog mixture, stirring until flour is just combined.
  • Chill dough for at least 15 minutes, as this ensure cookies will bake up puffy and round. Once dough is chilled, drop by heaping spoonfuls onto prepared baking pans.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned but still soft. Remove from oven and let cool completely on baking sheet.
  • When cookies have cooled, melt white chocolate in the microwave for about 2 minutes until completely smooth, stirring every 30 seconds so it doesn't burn.
  • Working one cookie at a time, dip halfway into white chocolate and then place on parchment paper to set. Sprinkle tops of white chocolate with nutmeg, if desired.

Notes

It is important not to overbake cookies. You will want to remove them from oven when still soft on top.

    For the record, I love that movie. The whole sequence when he tries turning the lights on and can't? I never get tired of that. Never. These cookies look so thick and soft, Gayle! Just the way cookies are meant to be. Love it!

    Hi Gayle, Who does love the Home Alone movies, but never thought of eggnog. It's pizza we order for those movies! Anyhow, what elegant cookies, dipped cookies always look so expensive and ritzy to me, like a person took a lot of trouble and effort. But these look easy. And you can't beat the flavors. Awesome giveaway, perfect for Christmastime!

These look divine!!! I love white chocolate too, and I'm all about baking with eggnog. Love these festive and pretty cookies!

    I love that movie, but my favorite Christmas movie is the National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. We've seen it about 6 times already this season. I also love eggnog and cookies. Together they make for a wonderful treat.

    Eggnog reminds me of Christmas Vacation too! I always laugh at those moose mugs, and how obvious Cousin Eddies faux turtle neck is. Ha! These cookies sound delicious!

    Love eggnog! At least I did before I went vegan. Thankfully, Soy Delicious makes a passable version (my non vegan husband likes it in his coffee). I'm definitely trying these. Yes to Home Alone and Christmas Vacation. Two of my favorite holiday movies. :)

      The soy version sounds delicious too, Linda! And I will have to try eggnog in my coffee. Great suggestion!

    Love "Home Alone"! We watch it every year, along with other Christmas movies... Three out of four of us love eggnog here, so if I want to bake with it, I have to hide it deep in the fridge. I love how you paired white chocolate with eggnog! These cookies sound perfect for Christmas cookie exchanges and I bet my husband could be convinced to try a few:)

      Home Alone is such a classic movie, definitely reminds me of my childhood! Thanks so much for the kind words, Heather! The eggnog isn't too strong in these cookies, so I'm sure your husband would love these!

    Oh Gayle, I just LOVE that movie Home Alone. It's the only movie that I can watch Christmas after Christmas. I pretty much remember every scene, but it's such a classic. I didn't remember the eggnog part, though. Think I'd better watch it again! As for these cookies, well, they look so professional. I take your word for it that they are delicious - they certainly look it!

    I totally agree... I love the flavor of eggnog but it's SO creamy and thick, I can only a drink a sip or two (definitely not a whole milk fan). I do love putting in my coffee instead of milk, though! I love these cookies... such a perfect way to get my eggnog fix!!
