Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
  • 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups semisweet or dark chocolate chips

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to foam and turns a rich, deep amber brown color, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown butter with both sugars and whisk until smooth and well blended.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Baking
  1. Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring an even distribution throughout the dough.
  2. Scoop tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown, and the centers are set.
  4. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
