Honey jumble buttons are a delightful treat that combines the warmth of honey and spices with the sweetness of powdered sugar. These small, flavorful cookies are perfect for any occasion, whether you’re hosting a gathering or simply enjoying a cozy night in.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line two baking trays with parchment paper.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 tablespoon of butter, 1/2 cup of honey, and 1/3 cup of brown sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring continuously until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth and combined. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together 2 cups of all-purpose white wheat flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of spice mix, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Mix well to ensure the baking soda and spices are evenly distributed.
- Pour the slightly cooled honey mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. The dough should be thick but pliable.
- Roll small, even portions of the dough into balls about the size of a walnut. Place them onto the prepared baking trays, leaving approximately 2 inches of space between each ball to allow for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden and firm to the touch. Be careful not to overbake, as you want them to be soft and chewy in the centers.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking trays for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, sift 1 cup of powdered sugar. Gradually add a few drops of water, stirring continuously, until you achieve a thick yet spreadable icing consistency.
- Once the cookies are completely cooled, use a spoon to drizzle or spread the icing over the top of each cookie, allowing it to set before serving.
- Enjoy your delicious Honey Jumble Buttons with a cup of tea or coffee!
Tips:
- Make sure the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.
- Combine the dry ingredients separately before adding them to the wet mixture to ensure an even distribution of the baking soda and spices.
- To achieve a uniform size for your cookies, use a small cookie scoop or measure the dough with a teaspoon.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before dusting them with powdered sugar to prevent melting.
- For an added touch, you can drizzle a simple icing made from powdered sugar and a little water over the cookies.
Enjoy your homemade honey jumble buttons with a cup of tea or a glass of milk. Their sweet and spicy flavor is sure to bring joy to anyone who tastes them. Happy baking!
