Zubereitung von Autumn Maple Leaf Cookies
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add ½ cup pure maple syrup and 1 large egg yolk. Mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Divide the dough in half, wrap each half tightly in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or up to overnight).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of the chilled dough to ⅛ inch thickness. Use maple leaf-shaped cookie cutters to cut out cookies.
- Place cookies onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the maple glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup pure maple syrup and 2 cups powdered sugar until smooth. Add 1-2 tablespoons of milk or water, if needed, to reach desired consistency.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, drizzle, dip, or pipe the glaze onto the cookies.
- Glaze makes a generous amount; you can easily halve the recipe if desired.
