Directions:

  1. COOKIES: Combine the powdered sugar and pecans in a food processor fitted with a metal blade.
  2. Cover and process until the pecans are very finely chopped, 45-60 seconds.
  3. Combine the sugar mixture, butter, rum, and vanilla in a large bowl; cream with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy, scraping sides of bowl often, 2-3 minutes.
  4. Reduce mixer speed to low; add the flour, baking powder, and salt, stirring until well mixed (1-2 minutes).
  5. Divide dough in half; shape each piece into a 10 long roll on a lightly floured surface.
  6. Flatten the sides to form a triangle on a sheet of waxed paper, using the paper to help create the shape.
  7. Wrap each half in plastic wrap; refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
  8. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  9. Cut each dough log into 1/4 slices; space 1 apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
  10. Sprinkle cookies with the pearl sugar; bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown.
  11. Transfer cookies to wire racks and cool completely.
  12. Meanwhile, make the FROSTING: Combine all the frosting ingredients (except the half-and-half) in a small bow.
  13. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed, adding enough half-and-half for desired spreading consistency.
  14. For each sandwich cookie, spread 3/4 teaspoons frosting on the bottom of a cookie, sugar side down; top with a second cookie, sugar side up.
  15. Squeeze together gently; repeat until all cookies have been assembled.
