Yield Makes 8 wedges

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup maple sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and put a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom in freezer to chill.
  • Blend butter, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons maple sugar, and vanilla in a food processor just until smooth, about 30 seconds. Sift flour, cornstarch, and salt over butter mixture and pulse just until clumps form (about 8 pulses).
  • Press evenly into chilled pan, then sprinkle evenly with remaining 2 tablespoons maple sugar. Prick all over with a fork and freeze 5 minutes.
  • Bake in middle of oven until edges are golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in pan on a rack 5 minutes and, while still warm, cut into 8 wedges. Cool completely before removing from pan.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies didn't turn out as well as I hoped. They were a bit dry and crumbly.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

Just made these and they are delicious! The maple flavor is subtle but present, and the cookies are the perfect texture - crumbly but not too dry.
