Instructions
Making the Maple Cookies
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. This prevents the cookies from sticking and makes for easy cleanup.
Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, add the softened butter and brown sugar. Beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy. This can be done using a hand mixer or a stand mixer.
Add the maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Blend again until all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure even mixing.
Combine the Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and ground cinnamon. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, blending just until combined. Be careful not to over-mix, as this can result in tougher cookies.
Shape the Cookies:
Using a cookie scoop, scoop out 1 ½ to 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them at least 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Using the bottom of a glass or cup, press each dough ball down until it is about ½ inch thick.
