Spiced Rum Crinkles
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup butter
- 1 egg
- 2 teaspoons rum or rum extract
- 2½ cups flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt

- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp cloves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F.
- Cream together the butter and sugars until smooth and fluffy. Add the egg and rum (or extract,) and mix together until smooth.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix on low until well combined.
- Roll dough into 1-1.5 inch balls (they spread a lot while baking,) roll the dough balls in the sugar mixture and place on a cookie sheet.
- Pop all the dough into the freezer for about 10-15 minutes before baking, this will yield a thicker cookie. Bake for 9-10 minutes or until the tops are crackled and the edges are set.
