These are wonderful Christmas cookies. Taste a lot like eggnog without the heaviness. I ground my own nutmeg for a a coarser texture that looked really nice.

I made these cookies last year! They were awesome. My boyfriend enjoyed them so much, he specifically asked if I was making them again! They are good frozen, too! I would recommend making the balls really small becuase the cookie spreads a great deal. Live and learn.
