Ingredients

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup Softened Butter (at room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar (packed)
  • 1 large Egg
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour

Streusel Topping

  • 1/4 cup Softened Butter
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • A pinch of Salt

Vanilla Icing Drizzle

  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Milk (adjust as needed)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
  2. Prepare Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, vegetable oil, and brown sugar. Beat the mixture until it becomes fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually sift in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon into the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined to form the cookie dough.
  4. Make Streusel Topping: In a separate bowl, mix the softened butter, brown sugar, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs for the streusel topping.
  5. Shape Cookies: Shape the dough into uniform balls and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheets. Using your finger or a spoon, create a deep indent in the center of each cookie ball to hold the streusel.
  6. Add Streusel: Press the streusel topping generously into the indentations on each cookie.
  7. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for approximately 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.
  8. Prepare Icing: While the cookies cool, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust milk quantity if needed to achieve a drizzle consistency.
  9. Drizzle Icing: Drizzle the vanilla icing over each cookie evenly for a sweet finishing touch.
  10. Serve: Serve the Cozy Coffee Cake Cookies warm alongside your favorite coffee or tea for cozy enjoyment.

Notes

  • Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for easier mixing and better texture.
  • Adjust milk in the icing if the drizzle is too thick or too thin.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • These cookies can also be frozen after baking and thawed before serving.
  • For extra flavor, try adding chopped nuts to the streusel topping.
