"Let's pretend these are healthy" cookies

(Before I forget how I made these very yummy cookies...)

1 cup white flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cardamom
1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick)
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
3 Tbsp honey
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup additions, such as dried cherries, dried coconut, walnuts, hulled sunflower seeds, and/or chocolate chips. I like a bit of all of them.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a small bowl, blend together flours, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and cardamom.

With an electric mixer, blend together butter and sugar in a large bowl.

Add egg, honey, and vanilla. Blend thoroughly with the hand mixer.

Using a spoon, stir in the flour mixture. When it's almost all mixed together, add the additions.

With clean hands, roll dough into balls the size of a golfball or a little smaller. Place one to two inches apart on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to a rack to cool.

Try to let them cool a bit before you eat them.
