Tried these cookies a few years ago for Christmas, and have been making them ever since. Looks like you put a lot of work into them, but they are really not very difficult. These are always the first to go on our cookie tray, and I often end up making extra batches. (I made 4 batches this year!) Prep. time includes refrigeration time.

MAPLE NUT COOKIES



Maple Nut Cookies image

There's no dairy, no sugar, no grains (quinoa is a seed) and no animal products in these delicious vegan cookies. But before you start accusing me of sucking the joy right out of cookies (mmmm....cookie joy), just give 'em a try. They are moist, soft and nutty - in other words similar to your standard carnivorous cookies. One word of warning though, these aren't a chewy cookie. They are crumbly so make sure you eat them over a plate.

MAPLE NUT COOKIES



Maple Nut Cookies image

I develop recipe's. Cookies are my favorite to make though I am known for my pies. This cookie people JUST love, I am told it reminds people of maple pancakes!

Provided by Raine Gottess

Categories     Cookies

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 17

3/4 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar, lightly packed
2 eggs
1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 c shortening
1/2 tsp buttermilk powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp maple extract
1/2 tsp salt
3 c all purpose flour
MAPLE ICING
2 c powdered sugar
1 tsp butter flavoring
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp maple extract
2/3 c water, add more as needed to cream

Steps:

  • 1. Using a mixer cream together sugars with butter and crisco.
  • 2. Add eggs one at a time
  • 3. Toss in the extracts-soda and buttermilk powder with salt. Add in Flour and beat until mixed well. Refrigerate covered about 1 hour.
  • 4. Roll large walnut size balls.Bake 350 F for about 10-11 min. May look slightly not cooked all the way-this is good. Leave cool on sheet pan a few minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
  • 5. Mix icing ingredients and beat well to fluffier. Top each cookie and decorate with a walnut

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will be. Use real maple syrup, not pancake syrup, and use fresh nuts.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked at a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: The cookies will continue to set as they cool. If you store them before they have cooled completely, they may fall apart.

Conclusion:

These maple nut cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make these cookies that are sure to impress your friends and family.
