Butterscotch Rolls

Rum flavoring and butterscotch morsels give these cookies a delicate butterscotch flavor--delicious with a fresh cup of coffee.

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup soft butter or margarine
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar
• 1/2 tsp rum extract
• 1 3/4 cups sifted all purpose flour
• 1 cup butterscotch flavored morsels
• 1 cup finely chopped pecans
• Sifted powdered sugar

Directions:

Cream together butter, salt and 1/2 cup sugar until fluffy. Add rum extract and gradually blend in flour until well mixed. Mix in butterscotch bits and pecans. Shape dough with hands into 1 inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in preheated 325 degree oven for about 18 minutes or until a very delicate brown.

Number of Servings: makes about 5 dozen

Notes from the Cook: While still warm sprinkle with powdered sugar then cool. Sprinkle again with sugar.
