How to Make Maple Peanut Yummies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup packed brown sugar, and 1 cup creamy peanut butter until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer for best results.
- Beat in ½ cup pure maple syrup and 1 large egg yolk until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes to firm up. This makes the dough easier to handle.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- Using a fork dipped in granulated sugar, flatten each ball in a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Start checking at 8 minutes.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
