Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, beat the cold butter and white sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
Mix in the honey and egg yolks one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the bread flour, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture until just mixed—do not overmix.
Use a cookie scoop to form small balls from the dough; roll each ball in granulated sugar before placing on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for about 15 minutes or until edges are lightly golden; allow them to cool slightly before transferring to wire racks.
