Ingredients
Cookie Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter Browned for added flavor
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Cook it until it turns golden brown and gives off a nutty smell, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the brown butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Whisk in the vanilla extract and the eggs until well combined. The batter should be glossy and thick.
- In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop out balls of dough and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between them for spreading.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze for up to three months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5 minutes.
