Instructions
- Heat oven to 375°F.
- In a large bowl, combine powdered sugar and butter. Beat together. Add eggs, maple syrup and vanilla and beat well.
- Combine flour, baking powder and baking soda. Add to the sugar mixture and mix well
- Place dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour or until firm. (Tip: If you are in a hurry, wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 20 minutes.)
- Divide dough into 4 sections. Working with one section at a time, roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to about 1/3-inch thickness. Cut out hearts (or circles).
- Cut a circle out of half of the hearts using a small round cutter or a shot glass. Place on ungreased baking sheet and bake for 7-9 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool thoroughly.
- Place 1 teaspoon of pie filling on the whole cookies. Top with the cut out cookies. Dust with powdered sugar.
- Enjoy! This recipe makes 24 double cookies.
