These Fluffy Maple Sugar Cookies are a delightful treat that's perfect for holiday tables. The comforting flavor of maple combined with the soft and fluffy texture of these cookies will surely impress your guests.

Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1 cup maple sugar. 1 large egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/4 cup milk. Powdered sugar for dusting.

Instructions: Start by heating the oven to 350F 175C. Put parchment paper on the bottom of a baking sheet. Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium-sized bowl using a whisk. When the butter is soft, put it in a separate large bowl and mix it with the maple sugar until it is light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix them in well. Add the dry ingredients from the medium bowl slowly while mixing in the milk in between. Don't mix any further than that. Place spoonfuls of dough about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet that has been prepared. Put the cookies in an oven that has already been heated for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden. After taking the cookies out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Then, move them to a wire rack to cool all the way down. After the cookies have cooled, sprinkle them with powdered sugar to make them even sweeter. Enjoy these soft maple sugar cookies!
