How to Make Rum Cookies Recipe

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line multiple baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the rum extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Drop rounded teaspoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While the cookies are cooling, prepare the glaze: Whisk together the confectioners' sugar and rum until smooth. Add milk, one teaspoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
  10. Once the cookies are completely cool, drizzle with the rum glaze.
