I wanted to make my boyfriend some type of sweet for Christmas because I love baking and I was on a budget; however, he is not very big on sweets. He absolutely loves honey so I thought a honey cookie would be perfect. I searched online for recipes, which was somewhat a pain because I don't really like honey as much so I didn't know what would be good. I found this recipe and read through the comments and figured I would give it a try since it seemed to be a favorite.
originally called for 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda & all purpose flour instead of self-rising flour, but I substituted those for self-rising
flour. I also added a tad bit more
honey than the
recipe called for.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Beat butter, brown sugar, honey, & egg together in a bowl until smooth. Make sure to scrape the sides.
Then, stir in remaining ingredients.
Grease or line a baking sheet. (I lined) Then drop spoon fulls onto it.
Bake about 7 to 10 minutes, or until the cookies start to brown a bit along the edges. The cookies look a bit shiny and like they have tiny little "holes" in them. Let them cool a bit and then enjoy. :)
Once mine were finished, I put them in a little bucket to somewhat resemble a beehive.
The cookies were a definite hit. He loved them and so did his family. I actually ended up making more over Christmas break for everyone. Oh and the name of the cookies made them extra special because "our song" is Honeybee by Blake Shelton.
These were YUMMY!!!!
