Lebkuchen Preparation

Beat sugar and eggs at medium speed of a mixer until thick and pale (about 5 minutes). Add the honey; beat at medium speed 2 minutes or until well-blended. Place 1 cup flour and citron in food processor, and process until the citron is finely chopped. Spoon citron mixture into a large bowl; add remaining 4 cups flour, baking soda, and next 4 ingredients, stirring well. Add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture, stirring until well-blended (the dough will be stiff). Cover and chill 8 hours. Divide the dough in half; wrap half of the dough in plastic wrap, and chill. Roll remaining half to 1/4-inch thickness on a well-floured surface. Using a floured mold with 2-inch square imprints, press mold firmly into dough. Remove mold; cut cookie squares apart, and place on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Cover with a towel, and let stand in a cool, dry place 12 hours or overnight to dry. Bake cookies at 300 degrees for 13 minutes; let cool on wire racks. Repeat procedure with the remaining dough.
