Honey & Spice Crinkle Cookies Recipe!

Makes 60 cookies

 

Ingredients:

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)

Directions:

1 Cream together the brown sugar and shortening.
 

2 Beat in the eggs and honey.
 

3 Combine dry ingredients and add to the creamed mixture.
 

4 Chill dough in refrigerator for about 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
 

5 Preheat oven to 350°F.
 

6 Shape chilled dough into 1-inch balls and roll in white sugar. (Keep dough chilled between batches so it doesn't get too soft).
 

7 Place 2-inches apart on a slightly greased (or parchment paper covered) baking sheet and flatten slightly with the bottom of a drinking glass.
 

8 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).
