Brown Sugar Cookies with Maple Icing
By cwyorkiex3
You know those grocery store oatmeal cookies with the crunchy, white icing on top? These cookies are like an uber-divine version of those. Super soft on the inside, perfectly crunchy around the edges, topped with a sweet maple glaze. If you'd like to try this recipe with more of a gingerbread flavor, substitute molasses for the Karo syrup in the cookie dough, and use vanilla extract instead of maple in the icing recipe.

Preparation
Step 1
COOKIES:
In a large bowl, beat together the butter, Karo, sugar and egg until very light and fluffy. Add the remaining ingredients and beat together until well mixed. Roll into golf-ball sized balls. Place 3 cookies on each cookie sheet and bake in an oven preheated to 375 degrees for 10-13 minutes, or just until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.

Whisk all ingredients together until smooth. Spoon into a ziploc baggies. Snip off the corner of the bag and pipe onto slightly warm cookies. Allow to set for 20-30 minutes before packaging up cookies.
