Instructions
To make the Cookies
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Step 2
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, sugar, and brown sugar for 1 minute using an electric handheld mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on high speed.
- Step 3
Add the egg, vanilla, and rum extract and continue creaming until fluffy. Add the flour and nutmeg and mix at low speed just until fully incorporated.
- Step 4
Scoop the cookie dough into 1 tablespoon-sized portions and roll well to form smooth, uniform balls. Place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each cookie for spreading room.
- Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until slightly golden on the bottoms. Let cool fully before topping with the icing.
To make the Icing
- Step 6
In a bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, nutmeg, and rum extract. Add whipping cream gradually, starting with 2 tablespoons and then adding 1-2 more tablespoons or until a smooth, no-too-runny glaze/icing consistency is reached. Spoon on top of the cooled cookies and spread around slightly with the back of a spoon. Enjoy!
