Steps:
- Butter an 8-inch square baking dish; line with parchment, allowing a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides. Butter lining (not overhang); set aside. Whisk flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup nuts in a bowl.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put 1/2 cup butter and 1/4 cup brown sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Mix in flour mixture and 1 teaspoon maple syrup. Press dough evenly into bottom of prepared dish. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Bake until set in center and pale golden, 22 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool slightly.
- Put remaining 6 tablespoons butter and 1/2 cup nuts into a small saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until butter is very foamy and nuts are fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon maple syrup, the ginger, maple sugar, corn syrup, and cream. Boil, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Spread over crust. Let cool completely. Run a knife around non-parchment sides; lift out of dish by overhang. Cut into sixteen 2-inch squares.
MAPLE PECAN SHORTBREAD SQUARES
These squares are my husband's favorite. We get some real, pure maple syrup from back home in Ontario, Canada, and they are just to die for. Hope you enjoy as much as we do.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine the flour and 1/3 cup brown sugar in a mixer. Mix in the softened butter until a dough has formed. Press into an ungreased 8x8-inch baking dish, and prick with a fork.
- Bake the shortbread in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. While the shortbread is baking, beat the egg in a mixing bowl along with 1/3 cup brown sugar, maple syrup, and pecans. Pour the pecan mixture over the hot crust, and return to the oven. Continue baking until firmed, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, and immediately run a knife around the edges to prevent sticking. Cool completely, then cut into 1-inch squares to serve.

MAPLE SHORTBREAD BARS
Shortly after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Regina Schrambling wrote of the healing power of cooking. "The food is not really the thing," she said. "It's the making of it that gets you through a bad time." This recipe, adapted from "The New Carryout Cuisine" by Phyllis Méras with Linda Glick Conway, was one she turned to in the trying days that followed. A mere two steps, and ready in less than an hour, it's comfort in a pan, just as good for when the darkness creeps up as it is for those days when you just need a bit more. And to those who might scoff at the two sticks of butter? Consider taking Schrambling's words to heart: "Abstemiousness," she wrote, "is not an option when you're feeling low."

- DOUGH: In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter for 1 minute. Then add the powdered sugar and cream them together, for another minute. Add the maple and vanilla extracts and combine. Then add the ground cinnamon and flour until the flour is mostly mixed in. The dough will be shaggy and that’s okay. Add the chopped pecans with the mixer on the stir setting until evenly dispersed. Expect the dough to be quite thick!
- ROLL: Flour a clean work surface, I like to do this on a silicone mat placed on the counter. Dump out the dough and pull it together into a disc without working it too much, sprinkling with a little bit of flour if it’s sticking. Divide the dough into two equal pieces then roll each piece into a 10-inch log that is about 2 inches in diameter. In a bowl, combine the coarse sugar and chopped pecans. Spread the sugar and pecan mixture over your clean work surface and roll the logs in the mixture until both logs are coated. Wrap each individual log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or longer. It's easier to slice the dough if it's chilled. You can make this up to 4 days in advance and refrigerate. Don't discard pecan sugar mixture; you can sprinkle a pinch on each cookie before baking, if desired.
- BAKE: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. When the oven has reached 350ºF, remove one log from the refrigerator and cut the log into 14 equal pieces using a sharp knife. Place the cookies on the lined baking sheet, about 1 ½ inches apart. You can sprinkle the cookies with the remaining pecan sugar mixture if you’d like. Bake for roughly 14 - 17 minutes or until golden around the edges. Allow the cookies to rest on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
