This recipe came to me from my Grandma Erickson. How far back into the Erickson or Gustafson family it originated, I can't say. The recipe looks a lot like plain sugar cookies but, the honey gives them a subtle but unique flavor. Sorry about the sugar confusion. The brown comes from the baking but I find that having them not so brown is better than burnt. That said, if you can watch them closely, a nice golden brown gives an added dimension to them, but be careful, they will burn in a heart beat.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon honey
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Directions:
1. Cream together Butter, Sugar and Honey.
2. Then add flour and Baking Soda to make dough.
3. Roll the dough into small balls and place on a baking sheet.
4. Use a cookie press or the bottom of a drinking glass dipped in sugar to flatten the dough balls.
5. Pre-heat an oven to 300°F.
6. Bake cookies for about 10 minutes (watch carefully, they burn easily).
7. When cookies are light brown, remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool.
