Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup of light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 1 large egg yolk, 1/4 cup of light corn syrup, 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of maple extract to the mixture and mix until smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring gently until combined.
  6. Scoop portions of dough and roll them into 1.5-inch balls, rolling each in granulated sugar.
  7. Place the sugar-coated balls on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set but centers are slightly soft.
  9. Allow cooling on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
