1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 cup confectioners' sugar

Recipe
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
In a large mixer bowl, combine butter, sugar, egg and vanilla. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low, add flour and nutmeg, and beat, scraping bowl often, until blended, about 2 minutes. Transfer dough to a cookie press and form desired shapes 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
To make glaze: In a small bowl, stir together sugar, butter and rum extract. Stir in enough hot water for desired consistency. While still warm, brush top of each cookie with glaze. Sprinkle with multicolored or green and red decorator candies.
