Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed for 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add the large egg and vanilla extract, mixing on low speed until fully combined (1-2 minutes).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms (1-2 minutes).
- Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, gently flattening each ball slightly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers are set.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
- In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream until simmering; stir in brown sugar and cornstarch, whisking for 2-3 minutes until thickened.
- Spoon the cream mixture onto each cookie and broil them for 1-2 minutes until caramelized to a golden color.
- Let cool slightly before serving warm for the best taste.

Notes
Watch the broiler closely to prevent burning. Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing. Allow cookies to cool slightly before transferring to a rack.
