Separate 1 egg. Put the basic mixture, 1 egg, 1 egg white, fat and rum aroma in a mixing bowl. Mix to a smooth dough with the whisks of the hand mixer. Wrap the dough in foil and put in a cool place for approx. 2 hours. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface 3-4 mm thin and cut out boots with two different sized cutters (12.5 and 4-5.5 high boot cutters).
Place on 2 baking trays lined with baking paper. Mix egg yolk and milk and brush the angels with it. Bake one after the other in a preheated oven (electric: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for 10-12 minutes. Let the boots cool down on a cake rack. Chop white couverture and melt on a hot water bath. Spread the boot tops with chocolate coating and allow to set. Chop the remaining chocolate coating and melt separately in a hot water bath. Let the chocolate coating cool down a little, fill it into two small freezer bags and cut off a very small corner each. Decorate the cuffs with different curlicues and the big boots with a monogram.
