Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup eggnog
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (sifted)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract and eggnog until combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  6. If using nuts, fold them in before spreading batter evenly in the pan.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown around edges; a toothpick inserted should come out clean but slightly moist.
  8. Allow to cool before slicing into squares.
