Combine butter, sugar, egg, vanilla and rum extract in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping often until creamy. Reduce speed to low, add flour and nutmeg. Beat until well mixed.
Fill cookie press. Press dough 1 inch apart on to ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 375 for 6-10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
Stir together the glaze ingredients. Add additional rum or rum extract/hot water to desired glazing consistency. You can microwave the glaze for a few seconds to make the glaze more fluidy. While still warm, brush the tops of cookies with glaze. Sprinkle with candies if desired.
