Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, melt the butter, honey, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in 30-second increments in the microwave. Whisk to combine.
½ cup butter, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, ½ cup honey
Allow the melted honey butter mixture to cool down for a few minutes then add in the egg and the vanilla extract and whisk again to combine.
1 egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fold in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cornstarch, and salt just until the flour mixture disappears. The cookie dough will be soft.
¼ teaspoon baking soda, ¼ teaspoon baking powder, ¼ teaspoon ginger, ¼ teaspoon cinnamon, 2 & ¼ cup AP flour, 1 tablespoon corn starch, ¼ teaspoon salt
Wrap the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for one hour and 15 minutes.
About 15 minutes before you are ready to pull out your cookies, preheat the oven to 325F.
Once the cookie dough is ready, scoop 22 small cookie dough balls using a small 2-tablespoon cookie scooper. Roll each one in vanilla sugar, place on the baking sheet, and bake for 10-11 minutes.
⅓ cup vanilla sugar
Allow the cooking to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack. Enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee!
