  2. Cream together the softened butter, vegetable oil, and brown sugar for about 3–4 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  4. Gradually mix in flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until just combined.
  5. Make the streusel topping by mixing softened butter, brown sugar, flour, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until crumbly.
  6. Scoop cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart, and create small indents in each cookie.
  7. Fill each indent with the streusel mixture generously.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes until golden around the edges. Allow cooling for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  9. Drizzle icing over the cookies in a zigzag pattern once cooled.
