- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the vanilla extract and egg, mixing until smooth and glossy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until a soft dough forms.
- Scoop out dough and roll into 1-inch balls, placing them on the lined baking sheet.
- Flatten each ball into a thick disk, about 1/2 inch thick.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers look set.
- Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- In a saucepan, simmer cream over medium heat until bubbling, then remove from heat.
- Mix brown sugar and cornstarch together, then whisk into the simmering cream until thickened.
- Once cooled, spoon the crème brûlée mixture generously onto each cookie.
- Broil cookies for 1-2 minutes until the topping caramelizes, watching closely.
