Brown Sugar Cookies

Step 1

Soften cold butter in the microwave for 10-12 seconds. Combine the butter with the brown sugar and beat on medium speed until well creamed together.

Step 2

Add the maple syrup, eggs and extracts and mix until well combined, scraping down the bowl as needed.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Slowly add into batter and beat on medium low speed until well combined and dough forms.

Step 4

Use a large cookie scoop and scoop cookie dough onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Roll in granulated sugar. Refrigerate the dough for a minimum of 45 minutes.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 350° F.  Place the dough about 2 inches apart, and let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes prior to baking.

Step 6

Bake at 350° F 11-13 minutes. Allow cookie to cool on the baking sheet for several minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
