Nutty, buttery and a bit boozy, these festive cookies come together in minutes, making them perfect for holiday baking. (They also happen to be gluten-free.) Reminiscent of the almond flavor and pillowy texture of an Italian pignoli cookie, this recipe calls for brushing them with rum-infused butter twice — once before baking and another round when hot from the oven — which imbues them with even more warmth and richness.
