Calling all eggnog LOVERS! If you love eggnog, these Eggnog Cookie Sandwiches will be your perfect match this holiday season. With a soft and chewy eggnog cookie that is perfectly paired with a spiced eggnog cream cheese filling, these will leave you dreaming of when you will get your next bite.
When the holiday season starts rolling around, the one thing I start my hunt for in the grocery store is eggnog. The original eggnog is the best (no judgment). Meaning that the dairy free, alcohol, light version of eggnog is just not it. These cookie sandwiches are the ultimate holiday treat because you get double the eggnog in every bite. The texture of the cookie will melt in your mouth, leaving you with hints of warm spices, a creamy eggnog flavor, and full of holiday cheer.

Instructions
Eggnog Cookies:

Spiced Eggnog Filling:
- In a medium sized bowl using a handheld mixer, beat together the butter and cream cheese until smooth in texture. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, nutmeg, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt, then gradually add in the eggnog. Beat on medium, medium high speed until filling is light and fluffy.
