How to Make Fragrant Rosemary And Honey Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ½ cup shortening, and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 large egg, ¼ cup honey, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
