Maple-Glazed Cookies Recipe
Ingredients
For the Cookies:
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp cinnamon (optional, adds warmth)
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
For the Maple Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3–4 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1–2 tsp milk (optional, to thin glaze if needed)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven & Prep Pan
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Cream Butter & Sugar
- In a large bowl, beat softened butter and brown sugar until fluffy (~2–3 min).
- Mix in egg, vanilla, and 2 tbsp maple syrup until smooth.
- Combine Dry & Wet Ingredients
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Don’t overmix.
- Shape Cookies
- Scoop dough (about 1.5 tbsp each) onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart.
- Bake
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden but centers are still soft.
- Let cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
- Prepare Maple Glaze
- In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar with maple syrup.
- Add milk a little at a time if the glaze is too thick.
- Glaze Cookies
- Once cookies are slightly cooled but still warm, drizzle or brush the glaze over each cookie.
- Let glaze set for 15–20 minutes before serving.
✅ Tips:
- For extra maple flavor, you can add 1–2 tsp maple extract to the dough.
- Sprinkle a tiny bit of sea salt on top of the glaze for a sweet-salty twist.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for longer.
If you want, I can also give a chewy version that’s extra gooey inside, perfect for maple lovers—it’s basically maple cookie heaven. Do you want me to share that version too?
