Melt honey and butter in a water bath.

Remove the bowl with dough from the bain-marie. Add another 2 cups of flour and stir first with a spoon, as the mixture is hot.

Step 8
Then knead the dough by hand until it becomes soft and smooth. You may need a bit more flour—the dough should not stick to your hands. However, add flour in small portions, otherwise it will be difficult to roll out the dough later.

Divide the dough into 15-16 pieces.

And decorating will be easy. All kids love chocolate wafers (I use "Kit Kat" and "M&M's" candies), don't they? Break the wafers into pieces and use them to decorate the sides of the cake.
