Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies: Your New Favorite Treat!
What You'll Need (Part 1)
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
What You'll Need (Part 2)
- 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Brown the Butter
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown and nutty-smelling. This adds a delicious twist!
Mix the Wet Ingredients
Pour browned butter into a large bowl. Add both sugars and whisk until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
Prep the Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and salt.
Bring It All Together
Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips!
Chill Out
Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This keeps cookies thick and flavorful.
Get Ready to Bake
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop and Bake
Drop dough onto baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake 10-12 minutes until edges are golden.
Enjoy Your Cookies!
Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Share with friends—or keep them all to yourself!
