If you’ve been following this blog for a while, you’ve probably already discovered one of my incredibly delicious honey cookie recipes. I’ve got these Not Your Bubby’s Honey Cookies, plus I’ve got these really delicious Lemon Glazed Honey Cookies. Both of them are fan favorites, with fierce debates over which is better.
Sorry to do this to you guys (ok, not really so sorry), but today I’m making that debate a little more complicated, because I’m sharing an incredible new Rosh Hashanah cookie recipe with you today! These Honey Crinkle Cookies are soft, chewy, and just incredibly delicious. Oh, and like all crinkle cookies, they’re just *so* pretty!

- ¾ cup oil
- 1 cup honey
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 3 ½ cups flour
- (approximately) ⅔ cup sugar, for coating
- (approximately) ½ cup powdered sugar, for coating
- In the bowl of an electric mixer on medium speed, beat together the oil, honey, sugar, vanilla, baking soda, salt and eggs. Beat until combined and creamy.
- Reduce mixer speed to low and add the flour gradually.
- Refrigerate the dough for about 1-2 hours, up to overnight, until the dough is firm enough to roll.
- Once dough has chilled, remove from fridge. Preheat oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop out dough using a medium cookie scoop, then roll in granulated sugar, then in powdered sugar. Place on prepared tray. Repeat with remaining dough.
- Bake at 350 for about 10 minutes, until the tops are set.
- The cookies freeze well in an airtight container or bag. The powdered sugar may dissolve in the freezer, but the texture will not be affected.

Has anyone tried subbing oil for applesauce?
overtimecook says
I don’t recommend it. The texture is very vital to this recipe.
Chaya Braver says
Dough was really soft, put it in the fridge overnight hope it works!
Miriam Frankel says

Hi! I want to make these! But, I’m wondering why it’s necessary to roll the cookies in 2 sugars. Is the confectionary sugar used to give the specks of white/light color?
overtimecook says
The first coat of sugar helps keep the powdered sugar from dissolving into the dough.
sue schwartz says
Do you flatten the cookies with the bottom of a glass or leave them in a ball shape on the cookie sheet before baking?

Hi! Thanks for reaching out. These cookies are my own recipe, so they are definitely correct on my own site, not some other site.
Additionally, you may want to let the people in that thread know that this is an ad supported site. That means that the 10-15 hours I spent developing, testing and posting each new recipe on this blog are paid back when people post links, not copy and paste. Every time someone posts the full recipe on that site, or any other, it has a direct impact on my parnassah. Thanks for understanding!

HI,
Looks like a yummy recipe.
Can the flour be substituted with gluten free flour? Have you ever tried that?
