Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, honey, and molasses until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually mix in the flour, spices, orange zest, and salt. Stir until a cohesive dough starts to form.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and cut into festive shapes, aiming for 1/4 inch thickness.
- Place cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes, until edges are golden.
- While cookies bake, whisk the icing sugar, orange juice, and Cointreau until smooth and glossy.
- Once cookies are baked, cool briefly before glazing them, then return to the oven for 2 minutes to set.
- Allow cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
