Maple Brown Sugar Cookies
Maple Brown Sugar Cookies are the perfect blend of cozy warmth and indulgent sweetness, making them a treat you’ll crave all year round. The dough comes together in just 10 minutes, and after a quick chill in the fridge, they bake to golden perfection in another 10.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
- 1 ½ cup brown sugar tightly packed
- ⅓ cup maple syrup pure or faux -- I honestly prefer Aunt Jemima!
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon maple extract
- 1 large egg room temperature & lightly beaten.
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- Granulated sugar for rolling or sprinkling
Instructions
- Melt butter in large, microwave-safe bowl and allow to cool completely.
- Stir in brown sugar and maple syrup until completely combined.
- Stir in vanilla extract and maple extract.
- Add egg and stir until well-combined.
- In separate, medium-sized bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- Gradually (about ¼ of the mixture at a time), add the flour mix to the butter mixture and stir until completely combined.
- Chill in refrigerator for at least one hour (may chill longer, up to 5 days).
- Once dough is about 30 minutes from being ready, preheat oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Once dough has chilled, scoop into 2-Tablespoon (45g) sized scoops. Roll in or sprinkle lightly with granulated sugar and bake for 10-12 minutes.
- Allow cookies to cool completely on cookie sheet. Do not put dough for following batches on hot cookie sheets, cookie sheets should always be room temperature or colder.
