I was lucky enough to have gotten this recipe from Facebook friend Brina Sachs Gonzalez right before Rosh Hashana (the Jewish New Year.) The recipe not only resulted in super yummy cookies, but turned out to be so easy that I could make it with my children…even with a broken KitchenAid! I have doubled all of Brina’s original measurements, so the recipe can easily be halved (if you can figure out how to measure 1/6 of a tsp!).
Honey Cookies (yields about 36)
- 2 cups flour
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup oil
- 1/3 tsp baking soda
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- a pinch salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Stir all ingredients together until you have a smooth, thick dough.
Take walnut-sized pieces of dough, roll them into balls, and press down on them lightly.
Bake for 12-14 minutes, until firm and slightly golden.
