  • ½ c. milk powder
  • ¼ c. AP flour
  • 2 t. cornstarch
  • 2 t. sugar
  • ½ t. salt
  • 4-6 t. unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ c. milk powder
  • 3 oz. white chocolate, melted
For the Peach Cookie Dough
  • 16 t. (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ¾ c. granulated sugar
  • ¾ c. loosely packed brown sugar
  • 2 t. honey
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 c. AP flour
  • ½ t. baking powder
  • ½ t. baking soda
  • 1 ½ t. salt
  • 1 recipe cream crumb (above)
  • 1 bag Mariani Dried Peaches, chopped into small pieces

Instructions

For the Cream Crunch
  • 1. Preheat the oven to 250°F
  • 2. Combine the ½ c. milk powder, flour, cornstarch, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. 
  • 3. Add 4 tablespoons of melted butter and gently toss until the mixture forms small clumps. Add up to 2t more of melted butter if the mixture is too dry and sandy.
  • 4. Spread the clusters on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for ~20 minutes. 
  • 5. Cool the crumbs completely. 
  • 6. Once the crumbs are cooled, add the remaining milk powder and mix. Pour the white chocolate over the crumbs until evenly coated.
For the Peach Cookie Dough
  • 1. Combine the butter, sugars, and honey in standing mixer and cream on medium high for 2-3 minutes. 
  • 2. Scrape down the sides before adding the eggs and beat on high for 7-8 minutes. 
  • 3. While the eggs and sugar are being mixed, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a bowl.
  • 4. Reduce the mixer to speed to low, using a small measuring combine, add the flour mixture one scoop at a time until everything is just combined, no longer than 1 minute. 
  • 5. Scrape down the sides and make sure all the flour at the bottom of the bowl is incorporated into the mixture. 
  • Turn the mixer back onto low, add the crumbs and peaches, mixing until they’re just incorporated, less than 30 seconds. 
  • 6. Using a 1 ½ inch ice cream scoop, portion out the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the fridge and chill for a minimum of 1 hour, up to 24 hours. 
  • 7. Once the cookies are fully chilled, preheat the oven to 350°F. 
  • 8. Place the cookies 3 inches apart on the baking sheet, bake for 9-11 minutes.
  • 9. If you used a larger scoop, add extra time as needed, one minute at a time. 
  • 10. The cookies should appear golden brown on the bottom with lightly browned bits on the top, but still yellow.  
  • 11. Let cool on a baking sheet and enjoy!
