Recipe - Cardamon Crisps

1 cup Sugar
1 cup Butter or margarine
One half cup Honey
One half cup Cardamon; ground
1 teaspoon Baking soda
1 tablespoon Hot water
One half teaspoon Salt
3 cup White flour
1 cup Nuts; chopped (optional)

Cream sugar, butter and honey. Combine flour, cardamon, soda and salt in a
bowl, stirring to mix thoroughly. Add the flour mixture to the sugar
mixture 1/3 part at a time. Add hot water after 2nd flour addition. Stir in
nuts if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes. This is a thin
cookie; don't overbake, it is not supposed to brown. They are chewy the
first day and then become crisp.
