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.

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.

In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.

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!
