How to Make Chewy Maple Cinnamon Cookies with White Chocolate

Making these cookies is as easy as pie. Wait, easier! Here’s how you can whip them up in no time.

1. Prep Time: Ensure you refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes to get that chewy goodness.
2. Dough Balls: Use a food scale to portion the dough into 1.5 oz balls for uniform cookies. Nobody wants a lopsided cookie, am I right?
3. Baking: Bake those babies until they’re golden, and let them cool completely before the fun decorating part!

Ingredients

• 1 batch Chewy Maple Cinnamon Cookies by Cooking with Carlee
• White chocolate melting wafers (I recommend Ghirardelli)
• Holly berry sprinkles for the festive flair
• Food scale for perfect portions
• Light-colored baking sheets to ensure even baking

Directions

1. Prepare the dough: Mix up that maple cinnamon cookie dough and pop it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Trust the process!
2. Portion it out: Measure out those dough balls using your food scale at about 1.5 oz each. Perfectly uniform cookies? Check!
3. Bake: Get those cookies in the oven. Once baked, allow them to cool completely before dressing them up.
4. Melt that chocolate: Use a microwave-safe bowl to melt your white chocolate at half power. This prevents it from becoming a sad, burnt mess.
5. Dip them: Dunk half of each cooled cookie into the melted white chocolate, then lay them on some wax or parchment paper to dry. Voila!
6. Drizzle time: Pour additional melted chocolate into a piping bag or a ziplock bag (if you’re feeling fancy) and drizzle it over the chocolate-dipped part.
7. Sprinkle it: Quickly place some holly berry sprinkles on the drizzle before it sets and gets hard. 🎉 Enjoy the festive vibes!

How to Serve Chewy Maple Cinnamon Cookies with White Chocolate

You can serve these cookies warm with milk for that classic combo everyone loves. Want to impress? Stack them on a plate, drizzle some extra melted chocolate around for aesthetics, and serve at parties. Just watch them disappear – talk about cookie magic! 🪄

How to Store Chewy Maple Cinnamon Cookies with White Chocolate

Keep your cookies fresh by storing them in an airtight container. They’ll last for about 5-7 days on the counter, but you can also freeze them for up to three months. Just be warned: they may not survive the thawing process! 😉

Tips to Make Chewy Maple Cinnamon Cookies with White Chocolate

• Do not skip the chill time! It’s vital for chewy cookies.
• Experiment with the amount of maple syrup to suit your sweetness level (sugar rush, anyone?).
• Consider adding a pinch of sea salt to the chocolate for a sweet-salty twist.

Variation

Feeling adventurous? Try switching up the white chocolate for dark chocolate. The deep flavors balance beautifully with the maple and cinnamon. You can thank me later. 😏

FAQs

1. Can I use brown sugar instead of white sugar?
Absolutely! Brown sugar adds a nice depth of flavor and moisture.

2. What if I don’t have a food scale?
No worries! You can use a tablespoon to measure about 1.5 tablespoons per cookie.

3. How do I know when my cookies are done baking?
Look for a slightly golden edge but soft center – they’ll continue to cook a bit as they cool.
