Ingredients:

Serving

4 tbsp clear honey
4 tbsp butter (or margarine)
4 tbsp brown sugar
1 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp ground ginger
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tsp allspice
1 egg yolk
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice
food coloring (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F and grease baking sheet (or line with parchment paper).
In small saucepan, over low heat, stir together honey, butter and brown sugar until the butter has melted.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, cocoa, ginger and allspice into a mixing bowl. Add egg yolk and stir to combine.
Add the honey and butter mixture to the flour. Stir to combined and then squeeze the mixture into a ball of dough with your hands.
On a lightly floured surface, with a floured rolling pin, roll out the dough until it is 1/4 inch thick.
Use cookie cutters or a knife to cut out different shapes. Roll out leftover dough and cut more shapes.
Use a spatula to lift cookies to the baking sheet. (For decorations, make a hole at the top of each cookie with a skewer.).
Bake the cookies for 7-8 minutes or until golden. Cool on wire rack.
For Icing: Sift the powdered sugar into a bowl. Mix in the lemon juice, stirring well. If desired, divide up mixture into smaller bowls and tint with a drop or two of food coloring.
When the cookies are cool, spoon the icing into an icing bag or a parchment paper cone and slowly pipe the icing onto cookies.
