My husband would fix these when the weather turned colder. Hot and sweet with a little liquor (optional).
This was one of my first posts since I started my blog in late 2011. Today (2-3-14) I am adding two recipes below that I found; one has ice cream in it and the other is made in a slow cooker.
Hot Buttered Rum
- 1 (16 oz.) pkg. brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp. ground cloves
- rum
- cinnamon sticks for stirring and orange slices for garnish
Mix sugar, butter and spices. Store this in a covered container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. This mixture also freezes well.
To serve, place 1 heaping tbsp. butter mixture, a little rum and 1 cinnamon stick in a mug. Fill with boiling water and stir well. You could add a dollop of whipping cream with a sprinkling of nutmeg or cinnamon.
