Honey Tips
How Honey Is Created
Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.
Directions
Preheat oven to 300°.
Using an electric mixer beat together butter, honey and almond extract. Sift together flour and salt. Add to butter mixture and beat to combine. Add nuts. Mix.
Using your hands, shape the dough into 1-inch balls. Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Bake 20-25 minutes until bottoms are browned and tops are just beginning to turn golden.
Place confectioners sugar in flat bowl, one cup at a time. Add hot cookies and spoon sugar over them to coat, adding more sugar to bowl as needed. Remove cookies to a rack to cool.
Yields: Approx. 42 cookies
