Yummy hot buttered rum

One of our favorite night time treats in the winter is hot buttered rum:

1 lbs. butter, softened
1 lbs. brown sugar
4-5 tsp. spices, we like cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger, allspice
2 Tbsp. rum extract
1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened

Mix the softened butter with brown sugar, spices and rum extract. Add softened ice cream and mix thoroughly. Freeze. Add one heaping spoonful to a mug of hot water. This recipe makes about 30 cups.

Best enjoyed with a loved one in front of a fire while it's snowing outside. Now if it would just snow outside . . .

That sounds amazing. And slightly scandalous. I love it.
