Wonderful

I just baked these cookies, they are wonderful. I also did not put the frosting on them. They were sweet enough without it..

Outstanding flavor!

I just finished baking a batch of these cookies and they are already a family favorite. The maple flavor is not too overpowering, and the cookies are moist and tasty. I substituted 1 cup of butterscotch morsels for the white chocolate, baking them at 370 for 10 minutes. I plan to save some to share with coworkers tomorrow, and I only do that with my best results!.
