Creamy Eggnog Dip

1 {8 oz.} package cream cheese
3 tablespoons store bought {or homemade} eggnog
1 tablespoon dark rum or bourbon {I used Mount Gay} — this is optional but if you leave it out, you may want to replace it with vanilla extract
¾ cup confectioners’ sugar
Cinnamon & Nutmeg for sprinkling if desired
Small canning jars
Decorative paper or fabric for lids
Clear cellophane bags
Ribbon
{Optional} Cookies for dipping

Place all ingredients in a bowl and beat until smooth with an electric mixer. {Start at low speed and work your way up so you don’t end up covered in powdered sugar!}
Spoon dip into a clean canning jar.
Sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg if desired.
Replace cap.
Package dip with cookies {if desired} in clear cellophane bags tied with coordinating ribbon.
