Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies are a classic cookie recipe taken to the next level with the addition of deliciously nutty and super easy to make brown butter. So yummy!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup Salted Butter (made into Brown Butter)
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 1/4 cup Dark Brown Sugar
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 3/4 cups of All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 cups Nestle Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Instructions

Brown Butter

    1. Make Brown Butter with 1 1/4 cup of Salted Butter.
    2. Melt the butter in a pan on Medium high heat.
    3. Once the butter starts to foam use a heat resistant spatula to stir the butter. You want to make sure you can see the bottom of the pan so you will know when the butter starts to brown. All the favor is in the browned bits in the bottom of the pan.
    4. Take the butter off the heat and pour it into another container. Make sure you get all of the browned bits.
    5. Place the brown butter in the refrigerator and allow the butter to begin to re-harden (approximately 1 hour.)

  4. Add the Vanilla and mix until combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, add flour, the Baking Soda and salt and mix.
  6. Add the flour mixture a bit at a time and mix until it is completely incorporated.
  7. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  8. Bake the cookies in a 350 degree oven for 10-12 minutes.

Notes

Note about the amount of brown butter: You use 1 1/4 cups of butter because some of the butter evaporates during the process of browning the butter and you want to have a full cup of brown butter for the cookies.
