Honey Nut Oatmeal Drops

Source: Christmas Cookie Magazine
Yield: 60 (or more)

2 1/4 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. packed brown sugar
1 c. butter
1/2 c. honey
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 c. quick-cooking rolled oats.
3/4 c. honey roasted peanuts
granulated sugar

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2. In medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter for 30 seconds. Add brown sugar and mix. Add honey, eggs, and vanilla.
4. Slowly add flour mixture. Add oats and peanuts.
5. Drop dough by rounded teaspoon 2" apart on prepared cookie sheet. Sprinkle the top of cookies with sugar.
6. Bake 8-10 minutes or until golden. Cool 2 minutes on sheet, then transfer to a wire rack.

Note: I don't use parchment paper. A simple nonstick cookie sheet works well enough for me.
