Pour butter into a large bowl. Add Dark Brown Sugar (1 cup) and Maple Sugar (1 cup) and whisk until combined. Whisk in Eggs (2) , one at a time.

Step 4

Then whisk in the Maple Extract (1 tsp) . Dough will be goopy.

Step 5

Add dries, one third at a time, to wets, mixing with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Wrap bowl with plastic wrap and chill for at least 20 minutes.

Step 6

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C) with racks in upper and lower thirds. Line two half-sheet baking pans with parchment paper.
