Critical Success Points

  • Making the rum butter and keeping it warm enough to brush
  • Not over‑mixing the almond‑flour dough
  • First brush of rum butter before baking
  • Second brush and sea‑salt finish right after baking

Safety Warnings

  • Butter and rum butter become very hot in the microwave; handle with care.
  • Use oven mitts when removing the hot baking sheet.
  • Alcohol in the rum evaporates, but keep children away from the hot glaze.
