Homemade Maple Syrup Cookies image

These are faintly sweet, with a hint of maple syrup flavoring. You can add a small extra amount of maple syrup for more flavoring. Got this recipe while shopping at Amish Acres here in Indiana.

1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon milk
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 cup shortening
