  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 2 cups plus 1/3 cup sugar, divided
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon rum extract
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup refrigerated French vanilla nondairy creamer

Directions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter, shortening and 2 cups sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in egg and extract. In a small bowl, mix milk and creamer. In another bowl, whisk flour, salt and baking soda; gradually add to creamed mixture alternately with milk mixture, beating well after each addition.
