The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

Honey Cookies


MOMYS Stacey McLeod

4 1/2 cups flour
2 c sugar
2 t. soda
1 t. cinnamon
1/2 t nutmeg
1 1/2 cups butter
1/2 c honey
2 eggs

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.  Form small balls and roll in sugar.  Bake at 350 for 8 minutes.  They should be soft and chewy.  If you like crunchy, bake another minute or two.  

Mommy saw this recipe come through on the MOMYS group way back in November 2005.  We made them several times for Daddy to take to work at Ft. Belvoir Army Post.  They were a HUGE hit.  These are really good!  These are best when formed into small balls to make "button" cookies.  I think the time is about here to make these again.  Daddy loves them!  These also freeze really well so you can make a double batch and freeze the rest.  So yum!

Love Always,
Mommy
