Prepare 2 cookie sheets by greasing them with a bit of but- ter. Since the cookies contain a fair amount of butter them- selves, each sheet only needs a bit. In a small saucepan, combine the butter and honey. Heat gen- tly to melt them together, then remove from the heat; add vanil- la. Mix the remaining ingredients in bowl and blend in the butter mixture. Drop rounded spoonfuls of cookie dough onto prepared sheets, flattening each cookie slightly. Leave room for spread- ing. If you bake two sheets at the same time, use two oven racks and rotate the sheets twice, so the cookies on the bottom rack don't burn. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, un- til the cookies are firm and gold- en. Place on a a wire rack for cooling. Yield: about 40 cookies. ❑ • Kitchens • Bedroom Sets • Credenzas • Kitchen Tables • Cube Tables • Wall Units Health Before you settle in to watch the Super Bowl, take your family to a party they'll never forget!
