Maple Cookies Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Combine all-purpose flour, baking soda, and ground cinnamon in a separate bowl, then gradually add to the wet mixture.
  5. Scoop the dough and roll into balls, spacing them on the baking sheets.
  6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until set around the edges and soft in the center.
  7. Prepare the maple icing by whisking together powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk.
  8. Once cool, dip the cookies into the icing, allowing excess to drip off.
  9. Optionally, sprinkle garnishes on the icing before it sets.
