RUM DRIZZLE

2 TBSP butter, melted

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp rum extract

1 TBSP water

1/2 tsp nutmeg

In a small bowl, stir all glaze ingredients except nutmeg with spoon until smooth and thin enough to drizzle. Pour mixture into small food- storage plastic bag: cut off tiny corner of bag. Squeeze bag to drizzle glaze on cookies. Before glaze is set, sprinkle 1/2 tsp nutmeg over cookies.

Kelly we had a hard time putting the dough through my cookie press so we ended up rolling it out.

It worked fine. I had not used a pressed before.
