SUGARED HONEY RECIPES

Steps:

• Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
• Beat butter in a bowl using an electric mixer until creamy. Add sugar and continue beating. Pour in egg, honey, and lemon juice; mix well. Add flour mixture and mix dough until blended.
• Wrap dough in wax paper and chill in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Roll dough on a lightly floured work surface using a lightly floured rolling pin to desired thickness. Cut into shapes using cookie cutters of your choice. Place cookies 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Spread almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet and place in a cold oven.
• Turn oven on to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake almonds, stirring occasionally, until light tan and fragrant, 12 to 15 minutes. The nuts will continue to cook after removing from oven.
• Meanwhile, mix sugar and salt together in a small bowl; sprinkle about 1 tablespoon sugar mixture into a large bowl.
• Stir honey, water, and almond oil together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Add almonds; cook and stir until almonds have absorbed all the liquid, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer coated almonds to the large bowl sprinkled with sugar mixture. Sprinkle remaining sugar mixture over almonds; toss to coat evenly.
• Spread almonds onto waxed paper to cool completely. Store at room temperature in a tightly covered container or plastic bag.
