Honey Tips
How Honey is Made
To make honey, bees drop the collected nectar into the honeycomb and then evaporate it by fanning their wings.
Directions
In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
Using an electric mixer beat together sugar, butter, and honey. Add egg and vanilla. Beat well. Add flour mixture and beat until just combined.
Using a spoon, scoop out dough and roll into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in the 2 tablespoons of sugar to coat. Place on prepared cookie sheet. Using your thumb, press into the center of each cookie. Fill indentations with jam.
Bake cookies 10-12 minutes or until firm. Let cool on baking sheet for several minutes to allow jam to set. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Yields: approx. 30 cookies
