Cookies
- 1 cup (2 sticks / 227 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup (200 g) light brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
- ½ cup cake flour
- 2 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Glaze
- 1 cup (125 g) confectioners' sugar
- 1-3 tablespoons whole milk
Cookie
In a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed, cream butter and brown sugar together.
Add egg and vanilla. Mix on low until all ingredients are incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cake flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until combined.
Streusel
In a small bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, salt, and melted butter until crumbly. Set aside.
Assembly
Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop, drop the dough onto a lined baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. (I usually put 6 cookie dough balls onto each cookie sheet.)
Using your hand, gently press each dough ball to flatten slightly. Top each cookie with about 1 tablespoon of the streusel.
Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the cookies are just starting to brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let cool as you prepare the glaze.
To make the glaze, mix the confectioners' sugar with enough milk to achieve your desired glaze consistency. Drizzle over cooled cookies.
