Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and vanilla powder/extract before folding into the butter mixture.

Gently incorporate the honey or golden syrup until the dough forms a slightly sticky ball.

Divide the dough into three equal parts, roll each into a cylindrical shape, and place on the baking tray.

Flatten each roll to about 1 cm thick for even baking.

Bake for 12-14 minutes until golden edges form, but the centers remain slightly soft.

Once baked, cut the cookies diagonally while warm and let them cool on a wire rack.
