Ingredients

1 cup of honey
1 cup of powdered sugar
1 tablespoon of lemon juice (optional)
1 teaspoon of flavoring (vanilla, almond, or any other extract)
Wax paper or silicone mat for cooling

Instructions

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the honey and flavoring. Mix well until fully incorporated.
Place the bowl in the microwave and heat on high for 1-2 minutes. Keep an eye on it to prevent bubbling over!
Once heated, remove the bowl carefully and stir in the powdered sugar and lemon juice. Mix until a thick paste forms.
Using a spoon, drop small amounts of the mixture onto a piece of wax paper or a silicone mat, forming little drops.
Let the honey drops sit at room temperature until they harden completely. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
Once hardened, peel them off the wax paper and store them in an airtight container. Enjoy them in your tea, or as a sweet treat on their own!
