From 'Taste of Home Cookies' - These are a crisp butter cookie with a secret ingredient. What coffee does for chocolate, the very small amount of maple syrup does for these butter cookies - rich, buttery, mmmmm! The dough rolls into logs and I cut with a pizza cutter for quick production.

6 dozen (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons maple syrup
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Directions

1
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar.
2
Add maple syrup; mix well.
3
Combine the flour and baking soda; gradually add to the creamed mixture.
4
Divide the dough into eight portions; Roll each portion into a 9-inch log.
5
Place 3-inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
6
Bake at 300°F for 25 minutes or until lightly browned.
7
Cut into 1-inch slices (I use a pizza cutter and go through all on a sheet at once).
8
Remove to wire racks to cool.
9
Dust with confectioners' sugar.

Very good! I pulled them out of the oven at the specified 25 min. and they were just right- perfectly crunchy. Most of them are gone now- my dad and brother seem to like them too ;-D

These cookies were easy and quick to make. The texture is very tender and the taste is so good. The addition of the maple syrup was a surprise. Took a little longer to brown, but that may be the fault of my oven. I'll make them often!

I made these cookies last year for Christmas and they were excellent. I am so happy I found the recipe again. These are excellent cookies and will not last long on any holiday cookie tray. Tastes just like our lost old family recipe. Thanks
