Glazed Homemade Honey Gingerbread Cookies

Fragrant gingerbreads prepared with passion cannot be compared to store-bought ones! As a basis for the recipe, I took a honey cake, which I bake quite often, but made the dough choux, which is typical for gingerbread. Gingerbread cookies according to this recipe turn out very tasty and do not go stale for a long time, although, most likely, they simply will not have time to go stale) Try it!
