INGREDIENTS

  • Unsalted butter: 1 cup, softened for creaming with sugars
  • Granulated sugar: 1 cup, for sweetness
  • Brown sugar: 1/2 cup, packed, adds richness and moisture
  • Eggs: 2 large, helps bind the dough and adds structure
  • Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon, enhances the flavor
  • All-purpose flour: 3 cups, provides structure
  • Baking powder: 1 teaspoon, helps the cookies rise
  • Baking soda: 1/2 teaspoon, helps the cookies spread evenly
  • Salt: 1/2 teaspoon, to balance the sweetness
  • Ground cinnamon: 1 teaspoon, adds a warm, spiced flavor
  • Diced peaches: 1 1/2 cups, fresh or canned (drained) for bursts of peach flavor
  • White chocolate chips: 1/2 cup, optional, for added sweetness and texture

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2:
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 3:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
Step 4:
Gently fold in the diced peaches and white chocolate chips (if using).
Step 5:
Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 6:
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 7:
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies.

Serving and Storage Tips

  • Serve these cookies with a cold glass of milk or a warm cup of tea for the ultimate treat.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days, or freeze for longer storage.

Helpful Notes

  • If using canned peaches, make sure they are drained thoroughly to avoid excess moisture in the dough.
  • You can skip the white chocolate chips or substitute them with nuts for a different twist.

Tips from Well-Known Chefs

  • Chef Carla Hall recommends sprinkling a little extra cinnamon-sugar on top of the cookies before baking for an added burst of flavor and crunch.
