Ingredients & Directions


1/4 c Margarine
1/4 c Honey
1/4 c Sugar
2 Eggs
3 c Flour
2 ts Baking Powder
1/2 ts Baking Soda
1 ts Ground Cinnamon
1/2 ts Ground Nutmeg

Cream the margarine, honey, sugar and eggs together in a bowl until smooth
and fluffy. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Divide the dough
into thirds. Flatten each one into a circle 1/2 inch thick. Wrap each in
plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight until firm.

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll out on a lightly-floured
surface to 1/8 inch thick. Cut out the dough with a star cookie cutter and
place on a lightly-oiled baking sheet. Bake in a 375-degree oven for 8 to
10 minutes, or until lightly browned.

Note: These Zimsterne have approximately three-quarters teaspoon of sugar
per serving.
