I love eggnog and my hubby doesn’t. Maybe he would go for eggnog scones?
Diane says

My husband is totally obsessed with eggnog. I think I’m going to have to add these to my list of things to bake for Christmas!

TidyMom says
I love scones, and I’ve never made them. These sound delicious Diane
Suzanne Phillips says
These sound very yummy but like another poster.. I have never heard of, nor seen, eggnog extract. Can a bit of rum or bourbon be subtituted? I can almost guarantee that my NEPA stores do NOT carry eggnog extract.
Diane says
Yes Run extract or actual Rum would be nice in these. https://lorannoils.com/ sells eggnog extract and so many others if you needed the resource.
