For me, the end of year celebrations rhyme with indulgence. When Christmas approaches, the scent of cinnamon floats in the air. A little Proust madeleine, which reminds me of gingerbread, always present at this time of year. So it was obvious to offer you a cinnamon shortbread recipe to use with your little cookie cutters. A simple and delicious recipe with a good honey taste. Don't hesitate to tell me if you've tried it and if you liked it!

  • 2 tbsp. tablespoon of milk
  • 1 C. teaspoon of cinnamon (or 4 spices, ginger, etc.)

almonds and the butter cut into pieces. Knead the dough
until the butter is well incorporated.

Add the honey and milk then mix to obtain a paste
homogeneous. Then place it in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
