Maple Glazed Pecan Cookies

Not a huge fan of anything Maple, but Dave is. So this is a new recipe I came across and decided to make just for him. I know, thoughtful and selfless. That's me. These cookies are soft, chewy, and remind me of a pancake with maple syrup. Not my fave, but he adores them!

Check out the pan that I burnt to a crisp! That happened while texting my husband. Forgot they were in the oven until I smelled something aweful. They were rock hard and just black on the bottoms!
