Ingredients
•
3 cups all-purpose flour
•
2 teaspoons baking soda
•
1/4 teaspoon salt
•
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
•
3/4 cup butter
•
1/2 cup brown sugar
•
3/4 cup honey
•
1 egg
•
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
1
Whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a bowl; stir in walnuts.
2
Beat butter and brown sugar together in a separate large bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy; stir in honey, egg, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined. Stir flour mixture into honey mixture just until well combined (don't overmix). Chill dough, 1 hour to overnight.
3
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease baking sheets or line with parchment paper.
4
Scoop about 1 tablespoon dough; roll into a ball and place onto a prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
5
Bake in the preheated oven until just puffy (or a little bit flat in the middle for a gooey texture), 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on baking sheets about 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
