    Since Christmas is just a few days ahead, I decided to make Snickerdoodle Eggnog Cookies for my Cookie Mondays as part of the Holiday Baking series! One thing that made me more excited is that this is a collab with Lindsay Ann from Lindsay Ann Bakes 🙂 Don’t forget to watch the Snickerdoodle Cupcakes that she made on her channel!

    Tips and Tricks for Making This Snickerdoodle Eggnog Cookies Recipe: 

    • Before mixing the dry ingredients like all-purpose flour, baking soda, and granulated sugar, sift them individually. This easy but very important step would make your cookies nice and evenly textured. It wouldn’t be fun biting into a lump of flour in between 🙂
    • After baking your Chocolate Chip Meringue Cookies, store them in an airtight container so you can enjoy them for several days – that is if you did not eat the whole batch in one sitting.
    • If you don’t have chocolate chips and have a chocolate bar instead, simply chop it in small bits and you have equally delicious chocolate to go in that croissant dinner roll!
