Eggnog Kringla Cookies
- 4 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
- 3/4 cup butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 1/4 cups eggnog

- nutmeg, for decorating
- In a bowl combine flour, baking powder and soda, and nutmeg. Set aside.
- In a large bowl beat butter and sugar till fluffy. Add egg and beat well.
- To the butter/sugar/egg mixture, stir in half of egg nog. Then stir in half of flour mixture. Stir in remaining eggnog and then flour mixture. It will be very stiff.
- Cover and chill at least 2 hours.
- To make them quickly, drop them by small spoonfuls on a baking sheet. To make them in the traditional manner: Working with 1/3 of dough at time (keep the rest of the dough chilled), separate dough into 1-inch balls and roll between floured hands into a pencil-like shape, about as long as your hand. On a baking sheet loop one end over the other to form an oval with two ends overlapping (to look like the Christian fish).
- Bake at 350 for 8-12 minutes before edges brown. They won't look done, but they are.
- Sprinkle with nutmeg and powdered sugar.
