honey cookies (Mustazzoli) recipe with only honey and flour reminds of chinese honey shortbread.

After lemon cornmeal cookies, Venice's cornmeal cookies recipe is an overkil. I understand that the author is trying to provide recipes based on the favorites from different regions. Same is the case with honey bars, honey biscotti.
