- Adjust the oven racks to divide the oven into thirds. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line baking
sheets
- Combine the syrup, butter, and brown sugar in a heavy saucepan and heat over medium-low heat,
stirring, until the butter has melted.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow it to cool slightly. Stir in the nuts, flour, and salt. the
mixture should not be too hot.
- Using a measuring spoon and a small rubber spatula, drop the batter by level 1/2 teaspoonfuls,
about 3 inches apart, on the lined baking sheets. Bake two sheets at a time one on the upper and one
on the lower rack, until the cookies have spread out very thin and appear lacy and light brown, 7 to 8
minutes total. After 4 minutes, switch the baking sheets to ensure even baking.
- Remove the sheets from the oven and immediately slide the parchment onto a flat surface. Let the
cookeis cool until firm, about 3 minutes. Then use a metal spatula to carefully transfer them to a
wire rack to cool completely.
