Are you an eggnog fan? It seems like it’s one of those polarizing foods, like cilantro and brussels sprouts. Most people pick a side and stick to it.
I’ve always loved it, but in small doses. I could never sip cup after cup, but a little bit definitely gets me in the holiday spirit. I even have my own homemade version, made in the blender!
What’s amazing though, is how eggnog flavors baked goods. That sweet, spiced, custard-like flavor seeps into every morsel and makes things taste fantastic. Take these eggnog snickerdoodles for instance. They’re next-level cookies!
