French Toast Pecan Cookies

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon rum-flavored extract
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans
• 12 pecan halves (optional)
• 1 pinch coarse salt, or to taste

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease baking sheets.
2. Combine flour, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and baking soda together in a bowl, breaking up any large lumps of brown sugar. Stir butter, egg, vanilla extract, and rum-flavored extract into flour mixture until dough forms; add chopped pecans and mix until well blended. Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Press a pecan half on top of each ball.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until edges of cookies are golden brown, 9 to 11 minutes. Sprinkle salt onto each cookie and gently press each with the back of a spatula to set the salt.
