Preheat oven to 350 degrees F with a rack in the center position. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Cream together the butter and sugar using a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a large bowl with an electric hand mixer. Scrap the bowl down, as needed, and beat on high until light and fluffy.
4
Pour in the eggnog, vanilla, and rum. Then add the egg yolks one at a time while mixing on medium. Scrape the bowl down and mix once more.
