Ingredients:
For the streusel topping:

• 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 2 Tbsp butter, softened

For the cookie dough:

• 1 stick unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg (or egg replacement)
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 peach, peeled and diced

For the icing:

• 1/2 Tbsp milk of choice
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 tsp vanilla

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the streusel topping ingredients: all-purpose flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter. Adjust the flour amount as needed to achieve a crumbly consistency. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for 5 minutes, until soft and fluffy.
4. Add in the egg (or egg replacement) and mix well.
5. Fold in the all-purpose flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon until just combined.
6. Gently fold in the diced peach.
7. Scoop the cookie dough onto the lined baking sheet and top with the streusel.
8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned. Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before moving them to wire racks to cool completely.
9. When the cookies are completely cool, drizzle them with the icing made from mixing the milk of your choice, powdered sugar, and vanilla.

Enjoy!
