Honey Cookies

These cookies are easy to make and require NO white sugar! I like to make a simple glaze to drizzle on top of the finished cookie, but these are great plain, too. Using an enriched honey like Cinnamon or Ginger adds seasonal flair to an otherwise timeless recipe. We hope you enjoy this one for years to come!

Ingredients for Cookies

  • 3 eggs
  • 2 c Stakich Raw H oney
  • 1/2 c milk
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 4 1/2 c all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Ingredients for Glaze (optional)

  • 1 1/2 c confectioners sugar, stirred to remove lumps
  • 4 Tbsp milk or water
  • Zest of 1/2 orange or 1 whole lemon (optional)

Directions for Cookies

1) Preheat oven to 350°F
2) In a medium bowl, beat eggs well. In a separate bowl, dissolve baking soda with a little milk and stir until well combined.
3) Mix flour into eggs and add the dissolved baking soda, milk, honey and vanilla extract, stirring constantly.
4) Arrange balls into dough and place on a lightly buttered cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, being careful not to overcook.
5) Allow to cool before glazing.

Directions for Glaze

Place the sugar in a medium bowl and slowly stir in the milk a little at a time, and the citrus zest to make a smooth, pourable glaze.
