Notes
Calories are an educational guess, this depends on how large you make your cookies. I based the calories on a cookie the size of the palm of a hand or 3-inch diameter.
If you want to cool the cookies faster, put them in the freezer for about 30 - 40 minutes.Store cookies in the frig. for up to 10 days.
NOTE: I experimented with organic sugar cane instead of syrup and honey, and it didn't work for me. While in the saucepan it became frothy and gave the cookies a grainy texture and burnt-like taste.
