Ingredients
Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 Cup unsalted butter
- 3/4 Cup brown sugar
- 1/2 Cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until butter changes color from yellow to light brown and releases a nutty aroma. Strain butter and set aside to cool, about 10 minutes.

- Transfer cookie dough into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

- Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
