Step aside white sugar, these maple brown sugar cookies are taste as good as they smell, and are topped with not only maple icing, but candied sage as well!
Just like my favorite chewy chocolate chip cookies, I’ve made a few variations of my chewy sugar cookies, and today is yet another.
Since apparently a cinnamon brown sugar cookie wasn’t fall-ish enough, I made a new version where I substituted the portion of white sugar for real maple syrup.
Hot damn did these cookies smell good, from making the dough to baking in the oven. Thankfully they tasted just as good!
Once they are cooled, drizzle a maple icing made from just powdered sugar and maple syrup. And if you are an over-acheiever, you will have some candied sage to lay on top, to stick to the icing as it sets.
Do you need to top them off with candied sage? No, but they really do make them look oh so pretty. Or if you’re like me and love sage then it’s a wonderful flavor combination with the maple as well.
Alternatively you could make a maple buttercream and make sandwich cookies instead, similar to these maple sandwich cookies.
