sugar cookie sans sugar, with a bit of honey.

So I couldn't tell you for sure how much of everything I put in this thing, because I didn't think much of measuring things out at 2am in the morning. Here's my guess instead.

1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp butter flavored Crisco
1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp honey powder
1 egg
2 Tbsp water
1 tsp almond extract
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour

Whip the Crisco and honey powder together. Beat in the egg, water and almond extract. They won't combine well initially, but just keep beating anyway. Then mix the salt, baking powder and cream of tartar into the mixture. Beat together until it's mostly fluffy. Combine with flour and mix well, without over-stirring. Refrigerate overnight or for an hour or so.

Preheat oven to 350F. Arrange the cookie dough into cookie shapes on a baking pan lined with wax paper. Bake for 10 minutes.
