Bake the Cookies:
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. Be careful not to over-bake them; the cookies should be set but still soft to the touch to ensure they remain chewy.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheets. This helps them firm up and makes them easier to handle.
Making the Maple Glaze
Prepare the Glaze:
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon of milk. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
If the glaze is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of milk, a little at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
Glaze the Cookies:
Once the cookies have cooled completely, dip the tops of the cookies into the glaze. Allow any excess glaze to drip off before placing the cookies on a wire cooling rack to set. Alternatively, you can spoon the glaze onto the cookies and spread it gently with the back of the spoon.
Add Garnishes:
While the glaze is still wet, sprinkle the tops with roasted chopped pecans or crumbled bacon, if desired. This adds a delightful texture and an extra burst of flavor.
