Didn't work at all! When I put the filled cookies back in the oven, the filling completely melted and spilled all over the parchment. What went wrong??

This recipe is phenomenal! I really love the cheesecake addition, it’s really egg noggy when you add enough spices(as per the recipe) and the califia nog worked really well. I’m about to try the so delicious one and see if there’s a difference.

These cookies were amazing right after cooling on the rack for a bit. They were even better the day after when I had cooled them in the fridge overnight. I set wax paper between layers to keep them from sticking to each other. The cheese cake filling firmed up quite nicely and we can’t get enough of these!

Wow, these are amazing! I was looking for something festive and unique. The house smells amazing and the texture of both the eggnog filling and cookie is perfect! I did use a pre-made Oat Milk Egg Nog instead of making my own. Thanks for the recipe.

A little disappointed. My filling lost its taste and wasn't getting firm..I made some prints bigger than others and some filled with less than others yet still no firm middles. I used silk nog and diya cream cheese.

These get a five for flavor! I made my cookies pretty small, but the cheesecake still overflowed into my pan. I'll try making the indentations a little deeper maybe. But the flavors are fantastic, and I bet no one will know it's vegan and GF (I subbed the flour).

In reply to Amber C. It sounds like the cookies were rolled a bit too big - that's the best explanation for them being undercooked. Each cookie should be just about 2 tbsp big.

Pretty disappointed with this recipe. The cookies came out raw and I ended up having to re-bake for an extended period of time - almost 10 minutes more than the recipe said. The flavor of the cheescake mixture is lacking the eggnog, and the cookies themselves taste pretty bland. Wish I would've made something else 🙁

These are fabulous. I bet even non-noggers would like them.
I cut my vegan butter into small cubes and froze them a few hours and barely mixed dough with my hands and the crunchiness was great, but they cracked more.
Thanks for my new favorite Holiday Recipe!

I can't find Go Veggie cream cheese but found Green Valley brand cream cheese. It tastes similar to what I
remember cream cheese tastes like. It has been 50 years since I found I was lactose intolerant. Glad I found your
site. Like the recipes.

In reply to Chelsea. It sounds like they were a little big. I often have a little but not a lot of extra filling. You could freeze the filing and make another batch later this season. Or put it on top of pancakes or waffles for a festive brunch. Also, I'm guessing your indentations weren't quite big enough (another reason why you'd have so much left-over) or they were a little full. Did you re-indent after the first bake?

Maybe I made my cookies a bit big, but I have so much extra filling! What can I do with it?
I also used Daiya cream cheese & it overflowed out of my cookies! Did I not push the thumbprint in deep enough maybe? I'm sure they'll still be delicious!

Hi, I’m from Australia and have never heard of soy nog. Can you give me an idea of what’s in it or what it tastes like (I don’t think I’ve ever had egg nog because we have a hot Christmas here) so I can try and make an equivalent, please?
Thanks
