Eggnog Oatmeal Cookies image

I love eggnog, yet I somehow always end up with a surplus. These cookies help me put leftover eggnog to good use. They also have wheat and oats, so I can convince myself they're healthy! -Kristin Weglarz, Bremerton, Washington

These are the best oatmeal cookies I've ever had. The eggnog flavor is subtle but it really comes through. The cookies are soft and chewy with a crispy edge. I will definitely be making these again!

I made these cookies healthier by using whole wheat flour and reducing the amount of sugar. They were still delicious and satisfying, but with less guilt. I'll definitely be making them again this way.
