Pour Nutmeg and Cinnimon in Eggs

Old Church Trick. Let these two soak in your egg mixture for 20 to 30 minutes and then make cookies. Notice the better flavor after they bloom or whatever. Taste the batter .. add more spices moisture or sugar if needed .. get it right. With Nancy not well, I do all the cooking. We just got five inches of snow and heavy winds. Good day to cook and sample.

Those do go well with eggs. I use them in my raw egg breakfast drink

Interesting. I just baked a pumpkin to make some pie in a while. Maybe I'll go set some cinnamon and nutmeg into eggs already. You said for cookies, not pie, but surely the principal must be the same!

Forgot to mention one pertinent factor .. set your eggs out first and let them adjust to room temperature. Ice cold eggs don't do the trick.

Raw eggs for breakfast .. during the Korean War our soldiers could not congregate for breakfast or they would draw fire .. they ate raw eggs in their fox holes .. but other than that .. I'll take mine cooked. What "got you" to eating them that way Kirk?

Years ago before I got salmonella from cookie dough (it IS possible, they had about 30 cases from one batch of contaminated eggs) I used to break eggs into a glass (poke the yokes) and swallow like Rocky... these days any eggs consumed in this house must be fully cooked, and no more licking beaters or bowl. (yeah that isn't great, but).

Putting spices into your eggs to leach into the eggs is a really great thing to do, and yes, it gives a new dimension to your spice sugar cookies. I learned for cookies and making cakes from scratch, to have eggs at room temperature for best results. It adds to pies too.

Cinnamon also can help regulate blood sugar but you have to do 6 grams a day-1 1/4 teaspoons (I use really mild Ceylon cinnamon for this as it's got less cucurmin) and add it to my foods. I eat a lot of soy and make my own soymilk and nutmeg will help kill the beany taste in the soy. I can't give amounts as I just shake some in there after the cinnamon. It works best if the milk is left to chill in fridge for 4-6 hours first.
