Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and rum extract. Beat on medium speed for 3 to 5 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Add a large egg to the mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet batter and stir until a soft dough forms. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  5. After chilling, scoop out portions of dough, roll into balls, and flatten them with a glass.
  6. Bake the flattened dough balls on the prepared baking sheets for 9 to 10 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
  7. Cool the cookies on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Beat together mascarpone cheese and softened butter until creamy. Add dissolved instant espresso and blend.
  9. Sift in powdered sugar and mix until light and fluffy.
  10. Pipe the mascarpone filling onto half of the cookies and sandwich with the remaining cookies.
  11. Dust with unsweetened cocoa powder for a finishing touch.
