Medivnyky, a honey-scented cookie from Ukrainian winters, is made by melting honey with butter and combining it with cinnamon. Shaping the dough before it rests can cause the cookies to spread in the oven.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Melt the honey and butter

8 min

Gently heat the butter, honey, and sugar over low heat until melted.

2

Add the egg

5 min

Once the mixture has cooled slightly, add the egg and whisk.

3

Knead and chill the dough

30 min

Add the flour, cinnamon, and baking powder and knead. Wrap the dough and chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

4

Shape the cookies

15 min

Shape the dough into small balls and arrange them on a baking sheet.

5

Bake

15 min

Bake in a preheated oven for 15 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.

Reminder

Do not shape the dough before chilling it; dough that has not rested may spread too much in the oven, resulting in thin, hard cookies. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), egg, and dairy.
