Directions

  1. To brown the butter, melt butter in a small, heavy saucepan over low heat.

When fully melted, increase heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, until the butter turns a medium brown and smells nutty.

Measure out 1 cup to use for cookies and reserve the rest for the filling.

Refrigerate until firm but not solid, about 30 minutes.

  1. For cookies, heat oven to 325℉ (160℃).

Have ready a cookie press and ungreased baking sheets.

  1. Beat the 1 cup brown butter with ½ cup of the confectioners' sugar until creamy.

Add egg and egg yolks and mix to combine.

Stop mixer and add flour; mix on low speed just until flour disappears.

  1. Transfer dough to a cookie press and press onto baking sheet Bake until set, 16 to 18 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
  2. For filling, cook maple syrup in a heavy 2-quart saucepan over high heat for 5 minutes. Cool to lukewarm then stir in remaining ½ cup confectioners' sugar. Beat the reserved brown butter in a food processor or a small bowl of electric mixer until light. Add the syrup mixture and beat until smooth. If mixture is too thick, add a small amount of milk or cream until it is spreadable.
  3. Assemble cookies by spreading about ½ teaspoon filling on flat side of half the cookies. Sandwich with another cookie.
