1 cup butter, softened 3/4 cup sugar 1 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg 1 egg 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon rum extract 3 cups flour
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add the nutmeg, egg and extracts; mix thoroughly. Stir in flour. If necessary, chill dough for easier handling. On a lightly floured surface, shape dough into 1/2-inch diameter rolls; cut apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool completely and frost cookies. About 4 dozen cookies.
Frosting: 2 tablespoons butter, softened 1 1/2 cups Confectioners' Sugar 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon rum extract 1 tablespoon light cream
Cream butter until light and fluffy. Add suagr and extracts; mix well. Beat in the cream. Frost tops and sides of cookies. With tins of a small fork, make lines down the frosting to simulate bark.
