Instructions
Creating your own Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies is easier than you might think. Follow these simple steps:
1. Brown the Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until it turns golden brown and develops a nutty aroma. Remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
2. Mix Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Pour the brown butter into the bowl and mix until well combined.
3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture. Beat the ingredients until smooth and creamy.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
5. Mix Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
6. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Chill the Dough (optional): For better texture, chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before baking.
8. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while the dough chills.
9. Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
10. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
11. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
