Maple-Macadamia Icebox Cookies
Ingredients
  • 1
    cup butter, softened
  • 3/4
    cup maple sugar or packed brown sugar*
  • 1/2
    cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2
    teaspoon salt
  • 1/4
    teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2
    egg yolks
  • 2
    teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 1/4
    cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4
    cup finely chopped macadamia nuts
  • 1
    recipe Maple Glaze (see recipe below)
Directions

1. In a large bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add maple sugar, powdered sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Beat until combined, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla until combined. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Using a wooden spoon, stir in any remaining flour and the macadamia nuts.

2. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a 10-inch roll. Wrap each roll in plastic wrap or waxed paper. Chill about 2 hours or until dough is firm enough to slice.

3. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Cut rolls into 1/4-inch slices. Place slices 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

4. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or just until edges are firm and tops start to brown. Cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; cool.

5. Drizzle cookies with Maple Glaze. Let stand until glaze is set. Makes about 60 cookies.
