Step-by-Step Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare Peach Compote - In a medium saucepan, combine diced yellow peaches, brown sugar, and cornstarch over medium heat. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring gently until the peaches are tender and the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and allow the peach compote to cool fully while you preheat the oven.
- Step 2: Preheat Oven - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Step 3: Make Cinnamon Crumble - In a mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon, then drizzle in melted butter. Mix until you form a consistent paste. Refrigerate for about 10-15 minutes, then bake for 5 minutes until lightly golden; cool and crumble.
- Step 4: Mix Dry Ingredients - In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
- Step 5: Mix Wet Ingredients - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg and mix until combined.
- Step 6: Combine Mixtures - Gently fold dry mixture into wet mixture until just combined; a few lumps are okay.
- Step 7: Scoop and Bake Cookies - Drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 11-12 minutes until the edges are set.
- Step 8: Prepare Cream Cheese Frosting - Beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Step 9: Assemble Cookies - Once cookies are cool, spoon peach compote into indentations, pipe frosting on top, and sprinkle with crumble.

Notes
Use fresh peaches for the best flavor and texture. Allow cookies to cool completely before adding toppings.
