Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in chopped nuts and/or mini chocolate chips gently into the dough.
  7. In a small bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and unsalted butter until crumbly for the streusel topping.
  8. Drop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over each cookie dough ball, pressing down lightly.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers appear soft.
  11. Cool on baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
