Description

Indulge in the warm, gooey goodness of Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies, featuring nutty brown butter and sweet chocolate chunks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 1/4 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 2 cups Chocolate Chunks


Instructions

  1. Brown the Butter: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it becomes golden-brown, stirring frequently.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
  3. Combine Sugars and Butter: In a large bowl, mix the browned butter with brown and granulated sugars until well combined.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Incorporate the eggs one at a time along with the vanilla extract until creamy.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and stir just until combined.
  6. Fold in Chocolate Chunks: Gently fold in the chocolate chunks until evenly distributed.
  7. Chill the Dough: If time allows, chill the dough for at least an hour or overnight.
  8. Preheat and Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop dough onto a baking sheet, leaving space for spreading.
  9. Bake Away!: Bake for about 10-12 minutes until lightly golden at the edges. Cool on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For a cozy treat, serve warm with cold milk or vanilla ice cream. Chilling dough helps prevent excessive spreading.
