Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F).

Cream the room temperature butter and sugar together in a bowl until light and fluffy.

Incorporate the flour, vanilla, baking powder, and honey (or golden syrup) into the mixture until smooth.

Divide the dough into 3 equal portions, shaping each into a roll about 2 inches in diameter.

Arrange the rolls on a baking tray lined with non-stick paper, leaving space between them.

Flatten each roll gently with your fingers.

Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until golden brown.

Cut the cookies diagonally while still warm and cool on a wire rack.
