Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened salted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat together on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  2. Add one egg and 1/4 cup of milk to the creamy butter mixture and mix on low speed until fully combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add into wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  4. Gently fold in the diced mango using a spatula.
  5. Cover the mixing bowl and refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes up to 2 days.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
  7. Scoop about 1.5 tablespoons of dough onto lined baking sheets, leaving about 3 inches between each mound.
  8. Bake the cookies for 14-16 minutes, watching for edges that are lightly golden.
  9. Remove from oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes.
  10. Whisk together powdered sugar with milk or mango juice in a small bowl until smooth; adjust consistency.
  11. Drizzle the glaze over each cooled cookie and let it set before serving.

Notes

Use fresh, ripe mango for the best flavor and ensure the butter is softened for easy creaming. Chilling the dough helps maintain shape while baking.
