Recipe
Mix honey and molasses in large saucepan; heat to boiling. Cool thoroughly.

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.
