Perfect Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
I got tired of buying store bought cookie dough because it never seemed to taste how I wanted. Always either being too flat, not enough chocolate chips, or just not flavorful enough for me. So, because of that I decided to make these soft and delicious cookies that satisfied my cookie craving. These brown butter chocolate chip cookies are amazing especially to take too events. I have gotten many compliments on it, and many of my friends always end up asking for the recipe.
Check out the easy steps down below.
Supplies
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup of brown butter
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 all purpose flower (pre-sifted)
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 5 oz dark chocolate chunks
Tools/Equipment:
- Bowls
- Whisk
- Spatula
- Cookie sheet or sheet pan
- Hand mixer or stand mixer or wooden spoon
- Small pan
Heat Butter
Start by putting in 3/4 cup of butter on low heat on the stove. First it will start to bubble up, and eventually turn a beautiful golden brown color. Your house will start to smell like a bakery after this. Take it off the heat.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
Mix Wet Ingredients
In a seperate bowl, combine brown butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Then add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract.
Mix Until Just Combined
Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture about a third of it at a time mixing with a spatula. Once all combined scrape the bowl with a spatula ensuring that everything is just combined.
Mix Chocolate Chips and Chunks
Add chocolate chips and chocolate chunks to the mix. Mix until well combined.
Roll Into 2inch Balls
Begin by rolling your cookie dough into 2inch balls. You should be able to fit about 6 cookies on the baking pan, placing cookie dough 2 inches apart from each allowing the cookie to spread out once in the oven. After this refrigerate the cookie dough balls for at least 30mins, this will ensure a better texture and flavor.
Bake the Cookies
Preheat your oven at 350° Fahrenheit. Remove your cookie dough balls from the refrigerator and place into the oven and bake for 11minutes.
Enjoy!
Remove them from the oven, and let the cookies cool down for a couple of minutes. Transfer cookies to a platter and enjoy!
