Hey Shannon! The rum if added to taste. I would start with 1 teaspoon and go up from there. Personally, I like pungent rum flavor in my sauce, so I add 1 tablespoon of a dark rum. Happy Baking!

Paula, this is soooo good! Very sweet, but the minute you take a bite, you are immediately in Krispy Kreme heaven. I did not do anything different to your recipe. However, when I tell anybody to make it, I tell them to have a cup of coffee or glass of milk nearby!
