Ingredients

Cookies

Streusel

Glaze

  • 1 cup (125 g) confectioners' sugar
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1-2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk, or more until it reaches your desired consistency

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Cookies

  • 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 the flours, 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, butter, pecans, syrup, and salt 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.

Glaze

  • To make the glaze, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, maple syrup, and heavy cream until smooth and glossy.
  • Drizzle glaze over cooled cookies.
