Honey Florentines

These delicate Italian cookies taste almost like caramel. They go perfect along side a cup of hot tea or coffee. Make sure to space them apart when baking so they have room to grow and become as thin as they should be. I love baking with honey as it is one of the oldest things we have on earth. It dates back to 5500BC. In addition, you may never want to leave the kitchen; they cook extremely fast and burn even faster.

Also, please everyone who has me on their blog roll leave a comment for me so that I can add you back to mine. When updating my blog it was deleted by accident and I want to get your links back up and running. Thanks so much!

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar

3. Place 1/2 teaspoon of mixture on baking sheet, making sure each spoonful is 3 inches away from one another so they have room to bake. Bake 3-4 minutes, until edges are golden. Cool cookies on baking sheet on a wire rack.
