GLAZE

Date: 25 Dec 1994 11:45:45 -0500 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 ¼" 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! REC.FOOD.RECIPES ARCHIVES
