These are good & chewy & VERY Sweet!

In large pot, boil honey & sugar, until sugar is dissolved. Measure the
rest of the ingredients and mix into the honey sugar mixture. Refrigerate
for 3 days.

Divide dough into thirds. With floured hands, press onto greased cookie
sheet to 1/4" thick. Press to whithin 1" of edge of sheet. Bake on middle
rack of preheated 350! oven for 20-22 minutes or until edges begin to brown
and center springs back from light tough.

Upon removing, invert onto a cutting board, and cut in 1" x 2" strips.
Drizzle glaze over cookies.

For glaze, I combine 2 c powdered sugar with enough milk to make it of
drizzling consistency (about 4-6 T) and a dash of lemon, orange or almond
extract, or all three if I'm in the mood for flavor!
