Maple Walnut Slice-and-Bake Cookies

I tested this maple cookie recipe a few times before the holidays last year. I brought two batches to a party, and my friends asked me—no, BEGGED me—for the recipe. The maple flavor is front and center, complemented by the cinnamon and walnuts. Instead of maple syrup, I suggest using super-potent maple extract, found in most major grocery stores. And you’ll smell that maple a mile away!
