From the kitchen of SteakNPotatoesKindaGurl

*Yields: 15 cookies 

• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
• 1/4 of an egg
• 1/4 cup real maple syrup
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• granulated sugar, for topping

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease cookie sheet with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar. Add the egg, syrup and vanilla. Mix until well blended. Sift together the flour, salt and baking soda. Stir into mixture until well blended. Chill the batter for 5 to 10 minutes at least to make it moldable. Shape into 1 inch balls or scoops with a spoon, placing on cookie sheet about 2 inches apart and flatten slightly. Sprinkle cookies with granulated sugar.

Bake 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Let cool on a wire rack.
