Honey Sugar Cookies

By mitzzy

Ingredients

• 1 cup honey
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 heaping cup shortening
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp ginger
• 1 tsp cloves
• 1 tsp allspice
• 1 tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 5 cups flour

Preparation

Step 1

Mid all ingredients until dough forms a ball. Roll dough out and cut into circles. Sprinkle the top of each cookie with a little sugar and bake at 350 degrees until done. Can also add ½ tsp vanilla and 1 cup of nuts if desired. This recipe is an old one and doesn’t have the time to cook the cookies. You just have to keep and eye on them and judge for yourself when they are done. I would say anywhere from 8-13 minutes.
