Honey Drop Cookies

I have read about cookies in various books and blogs, but haven't tried though it was much easier to bake. Since it was my first cookie baking, I needed a simple and easy recipe. Found this recipe from one of the blogs-Thattukada. It tasted good except that some got burned since I added more sugar and honey than what is needed. So, when baking a cookie, never add more than what is given in the ingredients.

After everybody had their share, I had little left in the fridge and so decided to bake this Goan cake - Pansache Dhonas, which I had penned down from Raksha's Kitchen some months back.
