These cookies have a rich, nutty flavor thanks to the brown butter used in the dough. They are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, making them the perfect treat for any occasion.
Instructions:
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Place the butter in a saucepan and melt over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Continue cooking and stirring until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine the brown butter and sugar. Beat together until fluffy and well combined.
Step 4
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture and beat again until well combined.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 6
Sift the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and stir until a dough forms.
Step 7
Form the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Step 8
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown and set on the edges.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Once the cookies are completely cooled, serve and enjoy!
