Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Method
Instructions
Brown the Butter
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the butter foams and starts to turn a golden brown color, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Mix Sugars and Eggs
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the slightly cooled brown butter and mix well. Next, add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Add Chocolate Chips
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Chill the Dough
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days) to enhance the flavor and texture.
Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheets
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop and Bake
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
Cool and Enjoy
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious brown butter chocolate chip cookies!
