Honey & Spice Crinkle Cookies image

I found this recipe on the Central Ohio Beekeepers Association website and had to try them. I used some great local honey which added to the great taste. Excellent with ice cream or sherbet on the side!

Time 1h30m

Yield 5 dozen, 60 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup shortening
2 eggs
1/2 cup honey
5 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cloves
4 teaspoons baking soda
white sugar (for rolling)

Steps:

  • Cream together the brown sugar and shortening.
  • Beat in the eggs and honey.
  • Combine dry ingredients and add to the creamed mixture.
  • Chill dough in refrigerator for about 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Shape chilled dough into 1-inch balls and roll in white sugar. (Keep dough chilled between batches so it doesn't get too soft).
  • Place 2-inches apart on a slightly greased (or parchment paper covered) baking sheet and flatten slightly with the bottom of a drinking glass.
  • Bake 8-10 minutes. Cool on pan for about 5 minutes then remove to cool completely. (I use parchment and just slide the parchment off the baking sheet onto the counter to cool).
