    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup honey
    2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
    1/2 cup molasses
    1 teaspoon cinnamon,
    3/4 cup packed brown sugar
    1 teaspoon cloves
    1 teaspoon allspice
    1 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 egg
    1/2 teaspoon soda
    1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
    1/3 cup cut-up citron
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1/3 cup chopped nuts
    Glazing Icing (below)

    Recipe



    Mix honey and molasses in large saucepan; heat to boiling. Cool thoroughly.
    Stir in sugar, egg, lemon peel and juice. Mix in remaining ingredients
    except icing. Cover; chill at least 8 hours.
    Heat oven to 400°. Roll small amount of dough at a time 1/4 inch thick on
    lightly floured cloth-covered board. (Keep remaining dough refrigerated.)
    Cut dough into rectangles, each 2 1/2 x 1 1/2 inches. Place 1 inch apart on
    greased baking sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until no imprint remains when
    touched lightly with finger. Brush icing lightly over cookies. Immediately
    remove from baking sheet; cool. Store in airtight container with slice of
    apple or orange. Make about 5 dozen cookies.

    GLAZING ICING
    Mix 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in small saucepan. Cook over medium heat
    to 230° on candy thermometer (or until small amount of mixture spins a 2
    inch thread). Remove from heat; stir in 1/4 cup confectioner's sugar. If
    icing becomes sugary, reheat slightly, adding a little water.
