Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

Notes

When making Eggnog Brownies, ensure the melted butter and sugar mixture is not too hot when incorporating into the egg mixture to prevent curdling. For a more pronounced eggnog flavor, you can add a splash of rum or rum extract. If you prefer a fudgier texture, consider under-baking the brownies slightly and allowing them to firm up as they cool. You can enhance the festive flavor by sprinkling a little extra nutmeg or cinnamon on top before serving.
