Adams Farm's Recipe of the Month

March 2006

Adams Farm Chewy Maple Cookies:

Here's another recipe that has been passed down through the generations of Adams here on the farm. We have done our best to write down the approximated measurements.

1/2 cup shortening
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup (4 oz.) Adams Farm's pure Vermont Maple Syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 and 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup flaked coconut

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease cookie sheets.

In a mixing bowl, cream shortening and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in the egg, maple syrup, and vanilla until well mixed.

Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture to creamed mixture. Stir in coconut. Drop by tablespoonful 2 inches apart onto greased baking sheets.

Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
