How to Make Maple Pecan Cookies
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using a stand mixer or hand mixer until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and maple syrup.
- Gradually add the egg yolk mixture to the creamed butter and sugar, mixing until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the pecan halves and vanilla extract (if using).
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a log approximately 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
- Wrap the logs in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 months).
- Once the logs are firm, slice them into 3/8-inch thick rounds.
- Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are set. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
