Rum Dainties:

Pour contents of jar into a bowl and mix with 3 tablespoons white Karo syrup and 3/4 ounce rum. Shape into balls about 1-inch in diameter. Roll in confectioners sugar and chill. This mixture is sticky, so keep finger and palms of hands dusted with confectioners sugar while shaping cookies. Store in tin box between layers of wax paper.
