Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix the first six ingredients in order given, adding enough sifted flour to make a medium dough that does not stick to hands.
3. Knead slightly. Pinch off pieces of dough the size of a large walnut and form into flat oval shapes with tapered ends.
4. Bake for 25 minutes.
5. While the cookies are baking, make a syrup by boiling together the sugar, water, and honey.
6. Boil to make a medium syrup, about 5 minutes.
7. When the cookies are cool, dip them quickly into the warm syrup and sprinkle with ground walnuts mixed with cinnamon.
