The beautiful cookies are the perfect way to wish your friends and family a sweet new year!
1 stick margarine or shortening of choice
3/4 cup Haddar Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Gefen Honey
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon molasses (optional)
3 cups Glicks Flour (plus extra as needed)
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 and 1/4 teaspoons Gefen Cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup Haddar Brown Sugar
1 teaspoon Gefen Ground Cinnamon
In a mixing bowl, beat the shortening with the sugar until smooth, then add the honey, egg yolk and molasses. Beat until creamy.
In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients and gradually add to your wet mixture.
If your dough is still very soft and sticky you can add some more flour.
Chill in the refrigerator for an hour (optional, for better results).
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Line a baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper. With a cookie scoop, scoop out some dough and shape it round while smoothing it with your hands.
Mix brown sugar with the ground cinnamon and coat one side of your ball shaped cookie. (This step is optional.)
Stamp your cookie with any item you have on hand that could double as a stamp. It could be the end of a whisk, a piping tip (I use the Russian piping tips for best results), a slotted spoon, or you can also create a pattern with a fork or a kitchen tong. Press as deeply as you can so the design will not fade in the oven. The denser your dough, the better the stamp will come out, but do not add so much flour because it can diminish the flavor and ruin the texture.
For best results, chill your stamped cookies in the freezer for 15 minutes before placing them in the oven. Let the cookies bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden.

So pretty! Can a link be provided for the stamp used on these cookies?
Hi Miriam,
It certainly is a beautiful design. I was advised that it’s actually the top of a whisk!
