Directions

  1. Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy, 5 to 7 minutes. Beat in the egg, maple syrup, and vanilla.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  2. For filling, beat first 5 ingredients until blended. Remove the top sheet of waxed paper; spread filling over dough to within 1/4-inch of edges. Using waxed paper, roll up tightly jelly-roll style, removing the paper as you roll. Wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.

  3. eheat oven to 375. Unwrap and cut the dough crosswise into 1/4-inch slices. Place 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until edges are light brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Cool on pans for 5 minutes. Remove to wire racks to finish cooling. Dust with confectioners’ sugar.
