For a more intense honey flavor, use a darker, more robust honey such as buckwheat or wildflower. To prevent the cookies from spreading too much, make sure the butter is properly softened but not melted, and chill the dough for the recommended time. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir in the chopped walnuts. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. (3-5 minutes)
03
StepAdd the honey, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined. (2 minutes)
04
StepGradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough. (3 minutes)
05
StepCover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight. This allows the flavors to meld and the dough to become easier to handle. (1-2 hours)
06
StepPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them. (10 minutes)
07
StepScoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie. (10 minutes)
08
StepBake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the cookies are just set. (8-10 minutes)
09
StepLet the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. (5 minutes)
