How to Make Soft Honey Cookies

  1. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Knead thoroughly until a smooth dough forms.
  2. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours (or preferably overnight) to allow the flavors to meld.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  4. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. (If the dough is too sticky, lightly moisten your palms with water.)
  5. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the bottoms of the cookies are golden brown. Keep a close eye to prevent overbaking.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
