EASY BUTTER RUM COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Into large bowl, break up cookie dough. Add gingersnap crumbs, ginger, cinnamon and 2 1/4 teaspoons orange peel. (Your clean hands will work best to fully combine all the ingredients.)
• Shape dough into about 2-inch balls; roll in brown sugar, making sure to evenly coat. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake about 12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool.
• While cookies are cooling, in medium bowl, stir together Rum Glaze ingredients until thick and smooth. If needed, add a little water for drizzling consistency. Use fork to drizzle glaze over cooled cookies.

Steps:

• Mix together flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, and butter until the mixture resembles cornmeal.
• Combine eggs, sugar, rum extract, almond extract, and nutmeg until well mixed. Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture. Stir until well blended. Divide the dough into two equal halves. Refrigerate the dough for 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place dough on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough out until it is 1/8 inch thick. Using a cookie cutter cut the dough into cookies (whatever shapes you please). Place the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden, 7 to 9 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
