Ingredients:
1/4 c. butter 2/3 c. sugar 1/2 c. honey 3 large eggs 3-3/4 c. all-purposed unbleached flour 2 t. baking powder 1/2 t. baking soda 1 T. ground cinnamon 1/4 t. ground nutmeg 1/4 t. ground cloves
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter with the sugar and honey until fluffy and light. Beat in the eggs. Combine the remaining ingredients and add to the butter-egg mixture. Mix until well combined. Divide the dough into 3 pieces, form each into a flat circle, wrap each tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate several hours or overnight until quite firm. Remove 1 piece of dough from the refrigerator and roll out onto a lightly floured surface until it is 1/8” thick. Cut out cookies with a star cookie cutter and transfer to a lightly greased cookie sheet, keeping them about 1” apart. Reroll scraps, refrigerate if needed, and reroll. For a shiny top, brush the cookies with a glaze made from a large egg beaten with 1 T. water. Bake in preheated 375°F oven for 8-10 minutes, until lightly brown. Cool on wire racks.
