Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups white sugar
  • ½ cup butter
  • ½ cup shortening
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ teaspoon rum extract
  • ½ teaspoon brandy extract
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup colored sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2
Beat sugar, butter, shortening, eggs, rum extract, and brandy extract together in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt; mix until dough is just combined.

Step 3
Mix colored sugar and nutmeg together in a small bowl.

Step 4
Roll dough into 1 1/4-inch balls; coat with colored sugar mixture and place 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.

Cook’s Notes:

Shortening and butter combination is strongly recommended to help cookies maintain rise.
