- 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, (softened)
- 1/3 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups graham flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch

- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line baking sheets with parchment.

Place the butter and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric stand mixer.*

Between 2 sheets of parchment, roll the dough out to a thickness of about 3/16-inch.
- 8
Use a 2 1/2-inch square cookie cutter to cut shapes, and transfer to the prepared baking sheets.
