Tips:

  • Use parchment paper: Line your baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking maple cookies is 350°F (175°C). If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the centers will be undercooked. If the oven is too cool, the cookies will take too long to bake and they will be dry.
  • Don't overbake the cookies: The cookies are done baking when the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. If you overbake the cookies, they will be dry and crumbly.

Conclusion:

Soft maple cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. By following the tips above, you can make sure that your cookies turn out perfect every time. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these soft maple cookies a try!
