Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Light brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 80 ml Pure maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 280 grams All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the pure maple syrup and vanilla extract to the wet mixture and beat until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still appear soft, but they will set as the cookies cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
