1/4 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped

Yield 28 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons light-brown sugar
1 ½ tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two large baking sheets with Silpats or parchment paper; set aside. In a small saucepan over low hear, melt butter, sugar, and honey, stirring until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and whisk in flour and salt until smooth. 2. Working quickly, drop ½ teaspoons of batter onto prepared baking sheets, at least 3 inches apart. Bake until cookies spread and turn golden brown, about 6 minutes. Let cookies cool on cookie sheet, on top of a wire rack. Let cool completely and carefully remove from pan (use fingers).

Tips:

  • Use fresh honey: Fresh honey has a stronger flavor and aroma than older honey, and it will produce crispier cookies.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature: Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them to rise and become crispy.
  • Watch the cookies carefully: Honey lace cookies can burn easily, so watch them closely while they are baking.
  • Cool the cookies completely before storing them: Cooling the cookies completely will help them to crisp up.

Conclusion:

Honey lace cookies are a delicious and delicate treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their light and airy texture and sweet honey flavor, honey lace cookies are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
