OLD GERMAN HONEY COOKIES
I got this recipe from my grandmother who got it from her grandmother. She had to translate it and then figure out measurements. The original recipe called for "enough flour to make a dough". Thankfully grandma knew what kind of dough.

HONIGKUCHEN (GERMAN HONEY CAKE)
German honey cake. This is my favorite to make over the Jewish high holidays. Easy and yummy. Note: I use a food processor to grind the almonds; it's really very simple. But, you can also buy almond meal if it's available at your local stores.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Use a paper towel to rub the softened butter over the bottom and sides of a jelly roll pan. Sprinkle 2 tbsp of flour over the butter and tip the pan from side to side to spread evenly. Invert the pan and tap to remove any excess flour.
- In a large bowl, stir together the 5 cups of flour, baking powder, ground almonds, coco, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, lemon peel, and almond extract. In a large saucepan, bring the honey, sugar, and water to boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Pour the hot honey mixture over the flour mixture and stir together until a smooth dough is formed.
- Spread the dough into the pan. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the top is firm to the touch. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle with slivered almonds, pressing them gently into the surface of the cake. Let the cake rest for 4-5 minutes, then cut. You can cut it into squares, rectangles, or any sort of fancy shape! Transfer pieces to a wire rack to cool.
- I've heard this is better if you store it wrapped in foil for several days before serving, but I've never done it.

LEBKUCHEN (GERMAN CHRISTMAS HONEY COOKIES)
This recipe is from an OLD betty crocker cookbook and is my absolute favorite Christmas cookie. My MIL sends a batch every year and is one of my favorite things of the season. DO NOT overbake these or they will become so hard that you might need to have dental work done (lol) If the cookies are too hard she suggests placing them in an airtight container with an apple slice. I did not include chilling time in the recipe.

- Place on a GREASED baking sheet about 1" apart.
- Place 3 almonds on top of each cookie in a flower shape, and place in a 400 deg oven for 10-12 min or until no imprint remains when touched lightly.
- While cookies bake, make glaze by boiling the water and sugar to 230 degrees - until it just barely begins to thread.
- Remove from heat and stir in confectioners sugar.
- Brush the hot glaze lightly over the cookies (if it gets grainy reheat slightly with a little water to thin again).
