Maple Pecan Cookies

Maple Cookies

125 grams butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 3/4 cups plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 cup chopped caramelised pecans

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius and prepare a couple of cookie trays.

Soften the butter, add the sugar and maple syrup and beat it until it is well mixed and creamy. Add the egg and beat again.

Sift in the cinnamon, flour, baking powder and salt. Add the pecans and mix together well, until no pockets of flour remain.

Roll the dough into balls and flatten onto the cookie trays (they didn't really spread at all on their own so you need to press them flat). Bake each batch of cookies for 12 minutes, then remove them from the oven and let them cool somewhat before you take them off of the tray. This recipe made more than 30 cookies and everybody thought they were delicious!
