What coffee does for chocolate, the very small amount of maple syrup does for these butter cookies - rich, buttery, mmmmm. The dough rolls into logs and I cut with a pizza cutter for quick production.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons maple syrup
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar.
2. Add maple syrup; mix well.
3. Combine the flour and baking soda; gradually add to the creamed mixture.
4. Divide the dough into eight portions; Roll each portion into a 9-inch log.
5. Place 3-inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
6. Bake at 300°F for 25 minutes or until lightly browned.
7. Cut into 1-inch slices (I use a pizza cutter and go through all on a sheet at once).
8. Remove to wire racks to cool.
9. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
