    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a saucepan, heat the honey and butter until the butter is completely melted. Let it cool to room temperature.

    2

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and a pinch of salt.

    Add the eggs and the cooled honey-butter mixture. Knead until a smooth dough forms.

    4

    Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

    5

    Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    6

    On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of 3-4 mm. Use cookie cutters to cut out various shapes.

    7

    Place the cookies on the baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
