Source: Allrecipes.com
Ingredients:
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar
4-5 tablespoons real maple syrup (depending on how much maple flavor you want)
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 egg
For Rolling:
2 tbsp. white sugar
2 tbsp. light brown sugar
1 tbsp. maple syrup.
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large bowl, add together the melted butter, 3/4 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar until well mixed. Beat in the egg, vanilla and maple syrup. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients until just mixed. Chill dough for about 15 minutes.
In a small dish, mix together the 2 tbsp. white sugar, 2 tbsp. brown sugar and 1 tbsp. maple syrup. Stir together until the sugar is no longer wet and clumpy, but grainy.
Roll dough into 1 inch balls, and roll the balls in the sugar mixture. Place cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake 8 minutes in the preheated oven. Cookies will be crackly on top and look wet in the middle. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
