Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup diced peaches (fresh or canned)
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. Sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in another bowl.
  5. Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet mixture.
  6. Fold in the diced peaches, cream cheese, and pecans if using, being careful not to overwork the dough.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use room-temperature butter and cream cheese for better incorporation. If needed, chill dough for improved shape.
