Rum Drop Cookies

These are very yummy.

Rum Drop Cookies

4 Tb soften butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
3 Tb rum
3/4 cup cake flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degree. In bowl, combine butter and sugar with electric mixer on medium until well blended. Beat in egg and 2 Tb of rum. Beat in flour until a soft dough forms, scraping down sides of the bowl frequently with a rubber spatula.

Drop slightly rounded measuring teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto well greased cookie sheets. Bake 6-8 minutes or until golden brown at edges.

Meanwhile in a small bowl, stil together powdered sugar with remaining 1tb of rum. Stir until glaze is smooth. Remove drops from oven and let cool 2 minutes of sheets, then remove to racks. Spread rum glaze over cookies and let cool completely. Store in a tightly cover container.
