4 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. baking powder
3/4 lb. sweet butter, softened
4 eggs
2 tbsp. rum
Makes 3-4 dozen.
  Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl.  Make a well in the center
and put the softened butter, eggs and rum in well.  Gradually mix
the flour into other ingredients.  Let the mixture, which will be a
paste, stand at room temperature, uncovered, for 2 hours.  Divide
into small balls the size of 2 tablespoons, and cook them in a
waffle iron.  Cool on a rack and store as for cookies.  (Note -
Belgians eat these like cookies instead of as a breakfast food).
