These soft, melt-in-your-mouth cookies are the perfect cookies to snack on during a long Rosh Hashana afternoon or anytime. Rolling each cookie in the palm of your hand before baking will give it a really nice look, and is a great activity for the kids! The honey flavor is not overbearing, and the dough is very easy to work with. Check out our complete collection of Rosh Hashanah recipes for mains, sides, soups, desserts, and more inspiration for the holiday.

Made these cookies to hand out to family and friends for Rosh Hashana and they were a big hit! Got so many compliments. P.s. I used the glaze from a different honey cookie recipe in Kosher.com on this cookie and it was so delicious! Glaze recipe linked here. https://app.kosher.com/C5ExT1WntWCBc9Fy7
