     1 c  Confectioners' sugar
     2 c  Olive oil
   1/2 c  Cognac
   1/2 c  Orange juice
     1 tb Honey
 7 1/2 c  A-P flour
     4 ts Grated orange zest
     3 ts Baking powder

 Oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

 In a saucepan, combine sugar, water and honey; bring to
 a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. Cool
 completely.

 Meanwhile, for cookies, in a large bowl, beat
 confectioners' sugar and oil until blended. Beat in

 flour, orange zest, baking powder and cinnamon;
 gradually beat into sugar mixture.

 Shape tablespoons of dough into 1" thick ovals. Place 1"
 apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until
 lightly browned, 20-25 minutes. Cool on pans 5 minutes.
 Remove to wire racks.

 Float and turn warm cookies in syrup about 10 seconds;
 allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper; sprinkle
 with walnuts. Let stand until set. Store between pieces
 of waxed paper in airtight containers.
