Honey Snaps

Of all the recipes out there for honey snaps, these have to be the easiest ones I’ve ever made! The butterscotch flavor makes these little beauties hard to resist.

Makes 15

recipe from Donna Hay magazine

1/4 honey
90g butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup plain all purpose flour

Preheat oven to 180c (350f). Melt butter with honey and sugar in a small saucepan over low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Add the flour and mix until smooth. Drop tablespoons of the mixture onto a baking tray lined with baking paper and cook for 5 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

    Thanks Meg! They were good but had a few left over & stacked them on top of one another & the humidity here made them stick together. So I put them in the fridge, chopped them up & sprinkled on top of vanilla ice cream…….YUM!

    I love a simple cookie recipe for when the mood strikes but you don’t want to go grocery shopping!

    Thanks Sara! You’re so right! The ingredients are already in one’s cupboard!

    I am definitely making these. Do you think these would survive a trip to Iraq?

    Thanks Candy! Not sure about transit to Iraq…….change in temperature could make the cookies stick together. Perhaps try putting a small piece of wax paper in between each one. Cheers!

    Thanks will do. My son’s best man is over there and I am getting tired of the same old cookie recipes.
