It is always fun to "discover" new recipes that aren't really new but I just haven't ever made them even though it has been quite a while since I first found the recipe. My problem is I am a hoarder when it comes to collecting recipe and cookbooks. There I have admitted it. I really do need to go through my "collection" and spurge a bunch. Maybe I can start tomorrow. 😉
Anyway this recipe I had written in one of my several spiral notebooks that contains cutout recipes and recipes I have just written down when I originally saw them. It doesn't make a lot but I like recipes especially for cookies that makes a small amount when I am making cookies for just us.
I also like to make desserts with less sugar and this recipe fit that bill. I substituted stevia for the sugar required but did use the honey. The honey taste is a nice surprise when you take a bite. I might end up making them some Sunday for the Cafe Treats at church since I do make treats for others than the sugar-free bunch.
SOFT HONEY COOKIES
1/2 cups sugar or stevia
1/4 cup oil
2 large eggs at room temperature
6 tablespoons honey
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2-1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
Beat in the eggs and
then add the honey and vanilla
Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt with a whisk.
Gradually add to the sugar mixture and mix well.
(dough will be stiff).
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
******
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop out dough using a tablespoon scoop and drop on prepared cookie sheets. (Cookies do not spread as they bake. I didn't know this so I prepared for them to spread, but they didn't.)
Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes are
until the bottoms are lightly browned. Cool for 1 minutes before removing to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Store in an airtight container.
