Ingredients

Scale

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup granulated sugar, for rolling
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, for rolling

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract and maple syrup.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
In a small bowl, combine the 1/4 cup granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for rolling.
Roll rounded tablespoons of dough into balls. Then, roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are still slightly soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Ensure your butter is truly softened, not melted, for the best cookie texture.
For a stronger maple flavor, you can use dark maple syrup.
These cookies will spread slightly, so give them enough space on the baking sheet.
