From Martha Stewart. These are YUMMY! And unlike some of her recipes, they are really easy. I make them in big batches as fall gifts (great for Thanksgiving teacher's gifts). Be sure to use real maple syrup- none of that fake junk

Steps:
- Cream butter and sugar together.
- Add 1/2 cup of maple syrup and egg yolk, mix well.
- Sift in flour and salt, combine well.
- Divide dough in half and wrap in plastic wrap and chill about 2 hours (this makes rolling and cutting the cookies possible. If you skip the chilling step you will have a huge mess when you try to roll them out!).
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Roll dough 1/8 inch thick and cut with cookie cutters (leaf shapes are the most fun!).
- Place on baking sheet (ungreased is fine).
- Bake apx 12 minutes.
- Cool on pan about 5 minutes and move to wire rack (leave them too long and they will stick!).
- To make glaze- combine 1/2 cup maple syrup and 2 cups powdered sugar (be sure to sift the powdered sugar if you don't want lumpy glaze!). You can dip, drizzle or pipe on the glaze. You can easily cut the glaze in half- it makes a lot!

[email protected]This recipe is a great starting point for maple leaf cookies. I've made a few adjustments to it over the years, but the basic recipe is still the same. I love that the cookies are crispy on the edges and chewy in the center.

[email protected]These cookies are good, but I've had better. The maple flavor is a bit too subtle for my taste, and the cookies are a little dry. I think they would be better with a glaze or icing.
