2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, honey, and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Gradually add in the flour mixture and mix until a dough is formed.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch (6 mm) thickness.
Cut out the cookies with a 2-inch (5 cm) cookie cutter and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
