Galletas de Miel Chilean Honey CookiesSometimes, I need to bake cookies. The smell from the oven is so rich and homey. This month we’re cooking at the BRBC: Chilean cakes and sweets and rescuing old recipes. So once again, I dusted the Imperial recipe book from my grandmother, and this time I decided to bake honey cookies. Also known as Honey Lunitas (little moons).
