Simple, fast and easy. Very tasty! I exchanged the rum with red wine and instead of cloves and anis seed i used a mixture of cinnamon, anis, cloves, piment and ginger. The dough is great for freezing or keeping in the fridge for one or two days. Great for kids or for christmas cookie parties where everyone can join and make some individual cut-out cookies. My variation of the cookies tastes a lot like the German "Spekulatius" cookies.
