Steps:
- Whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, and spices in a large bowl. Beat together butter and granulated sugar with a mixer until pale and fluffy. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, then honey and molasses. Reduce speed to low, and gradually add flour mixture until well combined. Divide dough into thirds, and wrap each in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm but still pliable, about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Working with a third of dough at a time, roll dough out to 1/4-inch thickness on generously floured parchment. Brush off excess flour, transfer dough on parchment to a baking sheet, and freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Cut into shapes with cookie cutters, rerolling scraps as needed. Transfer cookies to parchment-lined baking sheets, and freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Bake until edges turn golden, about 15 minutes, rotating once and firmly rapping baking sheet halfway through baking to flatten any bubbles in cookies. Let cookies cool completely on baking sheets set on wire racks.
- Place icing in a pastry bag fitted with a small plain round tip (Ateco #0, 1, or 2). Pipe outlines and details on cookies. Immediately sprinkle with sanding sugar, and tap off excess. Let set completely, uncovered, at room temperature, at least 4 hours or (ideally) overnight.
HONEY & SPICE CRINKLE COOKIES
I found this recipe on the Central Ohio Beekeepers Association website and had to try them. I used some great local honey which added to the great taste. Excellent with ice cream or sherbet on the side!

Steps:
- Cream together the brown sugar and shortening.
- Beat in the eggs and honey.
- Combine dry ingredients and add to the creamed mixture.
- Chill dough in refrigerator for about 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Shape chilled dough into 1-inch balls and roll in white sugar. (Keep dough chilled between batches so it doesn't get too soft).
- Place 2-inches apart on a slightly greased (or parchment paper covered) baking sheet and flatten slightly with the bottom of a drinking glass.
- Bake 8-10 minutes. Cool on pan for about 5 minutes then remove to cool completely. (I use parchment and just slide the parchment off the baking sheet onto the counter to cool).
Tips:
- Soften butter and cream cheese: Make sure the butter and cream cheese are at room temperature before you start. This will make them easier to mix and will result in a smoother dough.
- Use a stand mixer: A stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment will make quick work of mixing the dough. If you don't have a stand mixer, you can use a hand mixer or mix by hand, but it will take a little longer.
- Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will make it easier to handle and will prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
- Use a cookie scoop: A cookie scoop is the easiest way to get uniform-sized cookies. If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use a tablespoon, but be sure to level off the dough before scooping.
- Bake the cookies at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes: The cookies are done when the edges are just starting to turn golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely: This will help to prevent them from breaking.
Conclusion:
Honey spice cookies are a classic holiday cookie that is sure to please everyone. They are soft and chewy, with a delicious honey flavor and a hint of spice. These cookies are easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways, making them perfect for any occasion.
