Preparation

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
• In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, watching closely until it turns golden brown. This can take about 5-7 minutes, then remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, combine the warm brown butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined and smooth.
• Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
• In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
• Carefully fold in the chocolate chips.
• Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper, leaving about 2 inches between each dough ball.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden-brown edges appear, while the centers may still look soft.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
