I'm guessing these didn't go too well?

I forgot to update

They actually came out really good. But the rum flavor really didn't come through

Really they tasted more like coconut/sugar cookies which were fine. I was really hoping that the spiced rum flavor would come through but it didn't.

I think the problem is that you would have to add too much rum and it would make the batter too moist. That might be why rum cakes work well, because the batter can be more moist.

I might also add that almond butter doesn't have a very strong taste so that sort of gets lost after you bake them as well.

That being said, it might help the consistency of the batter in some way.

I'm going to go back to the drawing board on this eventually. If I can get a more pronounced rum flavor to come out I'll post a recipe. The dough tasted a lot more promising than the cookies, but the cookies were still good :)
