Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in maple syrup, vanilla extract, and eggs until well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add White Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Shape the Cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden and the centers remain soft.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Storage: These cookies store well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to 2 weeks.
Reheating: To enjoy them warm, reheat in the microwave for 10-15 seconds, or in a 300°F (150°C) oven for a few minutes until soft.
Freezing Dough: You can freeze the dough in balls and bake from frozen. Just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.
Variations: Add chopped nuts (like walnuts or pecans) or a drizzle of maple icing for extra flavor.
