Chewy Rum Sugar Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Mix together flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, and butter until the mixture resembles cornmeal.
• Combine eggs, sugar, rum extract, almond extract, and nutmeg until well mixed.
• Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture. Stir until well blended.
• Divide the dough into two equal halves. Refrigerate the dough for 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place dough on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough out until it is 1/8 inch thick. Using a cookie cutter cut the dough into cookies (whatever shapes you please).
• Place the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake 7 to 9 minutes.
• When cookies have cooled frost generously with Rum Flavored Icing if using.
• Rum Flavored Icing:.
• Heat butter and milk over a low heat. When melted remove from heat.
• Stir sugar and rum extract into the butter and milk mixture. Use hot water to thin the icing to your desired consistency.

Steps:

• Position oven racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.
• Beat the sugar and butter with an electric mixer on medium-high speed in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the vanilla and egg and beat to incorporate. Add the flour mixture in 2 batches and beat on medium-low speed until incorporated.
• Put some sugar in a small bowl. Scoop heaping tablespoonfuls of the batter, roll them into balls and coat in the sugar. Arrange the balls on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. (There will be additional batter for a second batch.)
• Bake until the bottoms and edges are barely golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. When the baking sheets are cool, repeat with the remaining batter. The cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Prepare cookies: Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.
• Cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a separate bowl until fluffy. Add eggs, vanilla, and rum extract; mix until combined. Mix in eggnog. Mix in flour mixture, a little at a time, until fully incorporated; try not to overmix. Place dough in the refrigerator to cool for about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Drop about 2 tablespoons of chilled dough for each cookie onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven just until the edges start to turn golden brown. Cool on the baking sheet for 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• While the cookies are cooling, whisk powdered sugar and eggnog for glaze together. Add more or less eggnog until you get the desired consistency. Glaze the cooled cookies and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream together the margarine and 2 cups sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla. Gradually stir in the dry ingredients until just blended.
• Wrap dough with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls and roll the balls in remaining 1/4 cup of sugar. Place cookies 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets and flatten slightly.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly browned at the edges. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Cream sugar and shortning. Add sour cream, eggs, and almond/vanilla. Mix well.
• In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and salt.
• Add to creamed mixture until well blended. Remember, the more you mix, the tougher your dough will be.
• Chill for a few hours (at least 3-4). The dough will be soft and slightly sticky.
• Roll out (I use a floured pastry cloth), and cut with a cookie cutter. Flour cutter between each cookie to prevent sticking.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Cookies shouldn't be brown, just done to the touch.
• FROSTING- See ingredients below.
• 2 lbs. powdered sugar 1 cup shortening 1/2 cup water 1/2 teaspoon almond extract.
• Just mix ingredients until smooth.
