1/2 Cup

BeeMaid Honey

Almond Extract

1 1/2 Cups

All Purpose Flour

1/2 Tsp

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a stand mixer combine the honey and butter and beat together on high for 5 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add in the sugar and almond extract and beat on high for another 2 minutes.
Add in the flour, baking soda, and salt and mix on low until fully incorporated and a dough forms.
With a 1 ½ tablespoon size cookie scoop, scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking tray approximately 2 inches apart from each other. (Optional: use a halloween cookie cutter of your choice for fun shapes).
Bake for approximately 8-10 minutes or until the edges are a light golden brown and the center appears to be just slightly under-baked.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to fully cool on the tray.
In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, honey, and milk together on high for 5 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add in the icing sugar and salt and mix on low until combined. If you are using food colouring, add it now.
Turn the mixer to high and allow to beat for 5 minutes until light and fluffy.
Top the cookies with frosting and sprinkles. Enjoy. Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days.
