MAPLE FLOWER COOKIES
Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter and granulated sugar and mix until smooth and just beginning to lighten. Scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl, add the maple syrup and mix to incorporate. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl again, add the egg yolks one at a time and mix until incorporated. Add the vanilla and lemon zest and mix until just combined.
- With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture and mix until just barely combined. Transfer the cookie dough to a sheet of plastic wrap and shape the dough into a disk while continuing to incorporate any flour. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes before rolling.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough to 1/4-inch thickness and cut into 3-inch flower shapes. Gather any scraps of dough together, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes before rerolling and cutting shapes one additional time. Gently press a lollipop stick about halfway up each cookie, brush with a bit of milk and use scrap dough to secure the lollipop sticks. Flip the cookies over and place on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the tops with a thin, even coating of milk and sprinkle colored sanding sugar onto each cookie.
- Bake until the edges of the cookies just begin to lightly brown, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Steps:
- Place rack in center of oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Whisk together flours, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a medium-sized bowl. Combine butter, oil and sugars in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix on high speed, scraping down sides if necessary, until sugars have dissolved and mixture is light in color, about 1 minute. Add egg, carrot puree and vanilla and beat an additional 30 seconds. Add flour mixture and beat an additional 30 seconds. Add oats, flakes, raisins and walnuts and mix over low speed just until incorporated. Dough will be slightly sticky and less cohesive than traditional cookie dough. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Using between 3 to 4 tablespoons of batter, form a ball and place on cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining batter, leaving about 3 inches between cookies. Wet hands and use palm of hand to flatten cookies until about 1/4-inch thick. Bake for 12 minutes, until cookies are fragrant but still soft. Let cookies cool slightly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
