Recipe

  1. Whisk the flour, cardamom, and salt in a medium-sized bowl and set to the side.  
  2. Scrape the seeds out of the vanilla beans and put them into a separate bowl along with the sugar. Use your fingers to mix the sugar and vanilla to make a sand-like texture and then add in the butter and mix on medium with a hand mixer until smooth. 
  3. Add in just the yolk of the egg as well as the honey to the butter-sugar bowl. Beat for 30 seconds then turn down the speed to low and add in half the dry ingredients. Mix to just combine before adding the other half. 
  4. Knead the dough for a couple of minutes by hand to make sure everything is incorporated.
  5. Divide the dough in half, make two 9-inch logs and wrap in parchment paper followed by in plastic wrap. Roll the logs on the counter to make sure they’re very round. 
  6. Put them in the fridge for 2 hours, unwrap, and cut the dough into circles.
  7. Put them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 13-18 minutes at 350 F, making sure to rotate them halfway through. 
  8. Cool for 5 minutes on the tray, transfer to wire racks, and enjoy!
