You’ll start by browning butter in a skillet, which gives the cookies a nutty, caramel-like flavor. Then you’ll mix in brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix in the dry ingredients and then fold in the chocolate chips. Finally, bake the cookies until they’re golden and delicious.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted and browned
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Step 1: Brown the Butter
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue to cook the butter, stirring occasionally, until the butter turns a golden brown color and starts to smell nutty. This should take about 5 minutes. Once the butter is browned, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 2: Make the Dough
In a large bowl, mix together the browned butter, brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat in the egg until combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Step 3: Bake the Cookies
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
