Vanilla Chip Maple Cookies image

Since my husband farms, I try to have simple meals and snacks available, as I never know when he and his father will come in from the fields. These cookies have a distinct maple flavor and stay moist and soft, although they're never in my cookie jar for long! -Debra Hogenson Brewster, Minnesota

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the walnuts from the recipe. The cookies were still delicious.
