Step 1: In
a large bowl, combine flour and sugar with an electric mixer set
on medium speed. Step 2: Add butter pieces and mix until

syrup and 2 tablespoons of water, and mix on low speed until the
dough can be formed into a ball. Do not overmix the dough or it
will become tough. Step 4: Separate dough into two balls
and flatten into disks. Step 5: Wrap each disk with
plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Step 6:

into a rough rectangle 10 inches wide, 15 inches long, and 1/4
inch thick. Step 8: Sprinkle dough with half of the

side, roll dough up tightly into a cylinder. Dampen edge with
water and seal. Step 10: Repeat process with remaining
disk of dough. Step 11: Wrap each roll in plastic wrap
and refrigerate for 1 hour. Step 12: After 1 hour preheat
oven to 325 degrees F. Step 13: Using a sharp knife, cut
1/4-inch slices from each roll. Place slices on ungreased cookie
sheets 1 inch apart. Step 14: Place 1/4 cup of maple
syrup into a small bowl, brush tops of each cookie lightly.
