Golden Swedish honey-toffee cookie fingers with crisp edges and a soft center. Baked as logs and sliced warm into elegant diagonals, they’re subtly sweet and perfect with coffee or as a refined sweet snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 100 g unsalted butter, room temperature (3.5 oz)
  • 90 g white sugar (3.1 oz / ½ cup)
  • 175 g all-purpose flour (6.1 oz / 1.4 cups)
  • 2 tsp vanilla powder or extract
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 3 tbsp honey (or 2 tbsp golden syrup for a toffee flavor)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (356°F). Line a baking tray with non-stick parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and smooth.
  3. Add flour, vanilla, baking powder, and honey (or syrup). Blend until fully combined into a soft dough.
  4. Divide the dough into 3 equal parts.
  5. Shape each part into a long roll and place them on the baking sheet, leaving space between as they will spread.
  6. Gently press each roll flat with your fingertips to about ½-inch thick.
  7. Bake for 12–14 minutes, or until golden at the edges.
  8. While still warm, slice each roll diagonally into strips using a sharp knife. Allow cookies to cool completely on the tray.

Notes

  • Use golden syrup instead of honey for a deeper toffee flavor.
  • Slicing while warm ensures clean edges and prevents cracking.
  • Cookies firm up as they cool—do not overbake.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
  • Perfect for gifting or pairing with afternoon coffee or tea.
