1/4cupmaple syrupmake sure it’s pure maple syrup for the best flavor!
2large eggs
2teaspoonsvanilla extract
2 1/4cupsall-purpose flour
1teaspoonbaking soda

2cupschocolate chipssemi-sweet or milk chocolate, your choice!
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent the cookies from sticking.
Cream Butter and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and brown sugar until it’s light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.
Add Maple Syrup, Eggs, and Vanilla
Once the butter and sugar are creamed, add in the maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix everything until well combined. The maple syrup will add a slight runniness, but don’t worry, that’s what makes these cookies so delicious!
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, or your cookies might turn out tough.
Stir in Chocolate Chips
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula. Ensure that they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop and Bake
Using a cookie scoop or two spoons, drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto your prepared baking sheet. Space them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
Bake and Cool
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they’re golden brown around the edges. Keep an eye on them, as baking times may vary depending on your oven.
Once done, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For the best flavor, always use pure maple syrup rather than artificial syrup. The richness of pure maple syrup enhances the cookies' sweetness and depth.Additionally, chilling the dough before baking helps achieve thicker, chewier cookies with perfect texture!
