1  cup butter, softened  
1 1/2  cups powdered sugar  
1  teaspoon vanilla extract  
1/4  teaspoon rum extract  
2 1/3  cups flour  
3/4  teaspoon ground nutmeg  
1/4  teaspoon salt  
1/3  cup chopped pecans  
Heat oven to 350*F. 
Cream the butter and 1 cup of the powdered sugar in a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. 
Add the vanilla and rum extracts; blend well. 
Reduce mixer speed to low and add the flour, nutmeg, and salt; beat just until combined. (mixture will be dry and crumbly.). 
Stir in the pecans by hand. 
Shape dough into 1" balls; space 1" apart on ungreased cookie sheets. 
Bake 13-16 minutes, or until cookies are set. 
Cool on wire racks 10 minutes; roll in remaining powdered sugar while cookies are still warm.
