Ingredients
 

Graham Cracker Cookie Base:

  • 1 1/4 cups brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups + 2 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs (about 14 full cracker sheets)
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

Creamy White Chocolate Frosting:

  • 8 oz. cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup white chocolate chips (melted)
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Peach Topping:

  • 2-3 Peaches peeled and diced
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey or brown sugar

Instructions
 

  • FOR THE GRAHAM CRACKER COOKIES:1. Using a stand mixer or electric beaters, cream together brown sugar, granulated sugar, and butter on medium speed, and beat until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract. Mx until combined.
  • 2. Scrape down the sides of the bowl if needed. Add the baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Mix for about 30 seconds.
  • 3. Add in the graham cracker crumbs, briefly stir in, then gradually add in the flour just until combined, don’t overmix.
  • 4. Cover and chill the dough for about an hour in the fridge. (Or up to 48 hours)
  • 5. When ready to bake, pull out the dough from the fridge, and once it’s soft enough to scoop, make dough balls by scooping about 4 tablespoons of the dough (use a 2-oz cookie dough scoop) and placing them evenly spaced on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • 6. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes, until edges are just golden but still soft in the center. Make sure not to overbake; the cookies will set up as they cool.
  • FOR THE WHITE CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING: 1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Slowly beat in the melted white chocolate (that has cooled) and mix on medium speed until smooth and lighter in color, about 4-5 minutes. Scrape the sides of the bowl if necessary. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Mix for another minute. If you'd like it sweeter, add up to 1/4 cup more powdered sugar.
  • FOR THE PEACH TOPPING:1. Peel and dice peaches. Toss in a bowl with either honey or brown sugar.
  • ASSEMBLY:1. Frost each cookie with the White Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting. Frost a few at a time and add a small spoonful of the peaches in the middle of the cookies. Repeat until finished.
  • 2. These cookies taste best chilled. I recommend chilling for at least an hour before serving. Store leftover cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to about 3 days.
