Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp cinnamon
¼ cup milk
2 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup butter softened
¾ cup light brown sugar packed
3 TBSP honey

Instructions

Dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together to combine. In a separate bowl, combine the milk and vanilla extract. In a third bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and honey for about 3 minutes until nice and smooth.
Add some of the flour mixture and a little bit of the milk mixture, to the butter mixture and beat to combine. Alternate mixing in the flour and milk mixture, mixing between each addition, until all ingredients have been added. Mix ingredients until the dough is smooth and shiny. (My dough was still a little crumbly, but then I used my hands to finish combining it, and it worked out perfectly.)
Roll it out: Place half of the dough on a large piece of flour-dusted parchment paper. Lightly dust the dough with flour and roll out until the dough is about ⅛ inch thick. Then do the same thing with the other half of the dough.
Chill: Place the parchment paper on a cookie sheet, cover lightly with plastic wrap and then refrigerate the dough for about an hour to chill.
Cut: Using a square cookie cutter, cut dough into squares and transfer the squares to parchment-lined cookie sheets. Feel free to use or create whatever shape you'd like, have fun with it!
Chill, again: Prick each cracker lightly with a fork and refrigerate for about 30 more minutes until they are firm.
Bake: Get the oven preheating to 350 degrees F. Then place the cookies in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes. Let them cool on the sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely. The crackers are delicious and warm, but they are also wonderful completely cooled. Serve and enjoy!
