300 – 350 g of all-purpose flour
100 g of honey
125 g of powdered sugar
0.5 tbsp of baking soda
25 g of unsalted butter
2 medium eggs
0.5 tsp of spice mix
Start by mixing the eggs with the powdered sugar, spice mix, and baking soda.
Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, melt the honey and butter together, being careful not to bring it to a boil (I usually do this using a double boiler). Add the egg mixture to the melted honey and butter, and mix well.
Gradually add the flour (the dough will be sticky). If you have a bread machine, it works great for kneading the dough.
Cover the finished dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight (I’ve left it for 7-14 days).
After chilling, knead the dough again and roll it out to a thickness of 3-4 mm. (If you have a pasta machine, it will speed up the rolling process.)
Cut out shapes from the rolled-out dough and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between them, as the dough will expand while baking.
You can also grease the baking sheet with oil and sprinkle it with flour before placing the cookies on it.
Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 180°C (about 350°F) for about 8-10 minutes, depending on the size of the cookies.
These cookies are aromatic and delicious.
