Steps:
- Whisk the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the maple syrup, egg, vanilla and maple extract. (The mixture may look curdled.) Reduce the mixer speed to medium low; add the flour mixture and beat until combined. Cover and refrigerate until the dough is no longer sticky, about 30 minutes (it will still be soft).
- Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Coat 2 baking sheets with cooking spray. Put the turbinado sugar in a shallow dish. Roll tablespoonfuls of the dough into 1-inch balls, then roll in the turbinado sugar. Press a walnut half into the center of each cookie and arrange 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the edges of the cookies are set but the centers are still soft, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.

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.

Tips:
- Use a food processor to chop the dates and nuts quickly and easily.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the dates and nuts by hand with a knife.
- Be sure to measure the maple syrup correctly. Too much maple syrup will make the cookies too sweet.
- If you don't have any maple syrup, you can substitute honey or agave nectar.
- Be careful not to overmix the cookie dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges. If you bake them too long, they will be dry.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them to keep their shape.
Conclusion:
These maple nut date cookies are a delicious and healthy snack that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
