Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 C vegetable shortening
1 C firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 C granulated sugar,
1/4 C granulated sugar for topping
1/2 C maple syrup (darker is better for this cookie recipe)
2 eggs
4 C flour
2 1/4 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
Maple glaze ingredients-
1 1/2 C confectioners sugar,
2 T slightly warm maple syrup,
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 2 baking sheet pans. Using an electric hand mixer is easier than hand mixing this dough. In a large bowl combine shortening, brown sugar, and white sugar until well mixed. Add maple syrup and eggs, one at a time. Mix well. In another bowl, combine flour and rest of the ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, a small amount at a time, until all ingredients are well mixed together.
Add the 1/4 c of white sugar to a small saucer.
I use an ice cream scoop to scoop dough and roll it into a 1 1/2 to 2 inch ball. Dip the top of the ball into the white sugar. Place on cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake 12-13 minutes, until center is set. Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet about 2 minutes, then transfer to cooling rack. Cool completely. Then top with Maple Glaze by combining the maple syrup into the confectioners sugar, a little at a time, until you achieve a spreading consistency that you like.
