Add in flour and all dry ingredients. Stir until dough forms. Roll the dough into balls, and place on a lined baking pan. Bake 12 minutes, you can do 14 min for crunchier cookie. Let cool for a couple of minutes on the pan, before moving to a cooling rack to cool completely. To make the glaze, to a bowl, add powdered sugar. Add hot water a Tbsp. at a time, whisking until smooth. Dip the cooled cookies in the glaze, and then place back on the cooling rack to set.
