2/3 cup butter, softened
1 cup honey
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup shortening
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup rolled sugar for decoration
In a small saucepan, combine buttermilk and brown sugar. Transfer mixture to a 1 3/4 quart glass or metal bowl. Stir constantly until all but one cup can be covered. Reserve 1 cup. Stir in first half of cookies, then egg yolks until moistened. Stir in vanilla until dough forms.
On a lightly floured surface, divide dough in half. Form the seedless, sliced loaf into 1 inch balls. Press balls evenly onto greased cookie sheets.
Bake for 11 to 13 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly browned. Cool completely on wire rack. Reserve 3/4 cupcakes for topping.
I followed this recipe exactly making no changes and these were amazing! My husband complained when they were all gone. My only warning would be to be careful when grilling over high heat, some of ours were burned, however my husband was not.
