Browned Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Bring to a simmer and simmer until the butter starts to brown and gives off a nutty aroma. Pour the butter into the bowl of a stand mixer, discarding the darkest bits that are at the bottom of the pan, and allow to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• In the meantime, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder and baking soda for 30 seconds to evenly distribute the leavening. Stir in the grated unsweetened chocolate.
• Add the brown and granulated sugar to the browned butter and mix until smooth and slightly fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined. Scrape down the bowl, add the vanilla and briefly mix. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until the dough just comes together. Add the chocolate morsels and chopped chocolate and mix until just combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 20 minutes if you are baking the same day (or allow to stay covered in the fridge for 12 to 24 hours if baking later).
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Scoop the dough with a medium cookie scoop (1.5 ounces) and place 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets; press the cookies very slightly to flatten. Bake, opening the oven and gently slamming the baking sheets halfway through the baking process, until the edges are slightly golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, sift together the flours, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
• In a medium or large saucepan, add the butter and melt over medium heat. The larger the pan you use, the quicker the process will be!
• Bring the butter to a boil, stirring frequently. As the water begins to boil out of the butter, the milk solids in the butter will separate, sink to the bottom, and begin to toast and brown. As this begins to happen, make sure to stir constantly so the butter browns evenly. It may become quite foamy, splatter a bit, and be difficult to see, so keep a close eye on it, removing from heat and continuing to stir if it starts to foam over.
• Once the butter has turned a nice nutty brown, remove from the heat and pour into a large liquid measuring cup to stop the cooking. Allow it to cool down for a minute or two, give it a stir, and carefully add 2-3 tablespoons of water to the butter to bring it back up to 1 cup (240 ml) of liquid.
• Set aside to cool to room temperature. To help speed this process up, you can place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes. You want to make sure the butter is still liquid when you're adding it to the dough later on, so make sure to remove after 15 minutes.
• In a large bowl, add the sugars, vanilla, espresso powder, and cooled brown butter. Cream together with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.
• Add the egg and yolk and beat until incorporated.
• Add the dry ingredients, about ⅓ of the mixture at a time, and beat between additions until just incorporated. It's okay for there to be a bit of unmixed flour on the edge of bowl, this will be incorporated in the next step.
• Using a wooden spoon, fold the chocolate chips and chunks into the dough
• Scoop the cookies onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet in 3-tablespoon-sized mounds.
• For optimal flavor, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or, even better, overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Evenly space the dough 3 inches (8 cm) apart from one another on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 12-14 minutes.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Add the pecans to a large, high-walled skillet. Toast over medium heat for 5-8 minutes, until fragrant and beginning to darken slightly, stirring continuously to prevent burning.
• Pour in the melted coconut oil and stir to combine. Bring to a low simmer and steep the pecans for 8-10 minutes, until the coconut oil is tinted brown and there is a strong nutty aroma. Stir occasionally to prevent burning. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool for 5-10 minutes, until warm to the touch but cool enough to handle. Strain out the pecans and reserve for another use. You should have about ½ cup of infused coconut oil.
• Add the warm coconut oil to a large microwave-safe bowl, along with the brown and granulated sugars, non-dairy milk, and vanilla. Whisk well to combine. Microwave for 20 seconds, just until the sugars have begun to dissolve.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix with a fork to combine.
• Sift the flour mixture into the wet ingredients and fold with a spatula to combine, being careful not to over-mix.
• Fold in the chopped chocolate and chocolate chunks until evenly distributed.
• Scoop the dough with a 2-ounce scoop onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing at least 2 inches apart. Chill in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Bake the cookies for 15-18 minutes, until browned. Let cool for 10 minutes on the pans, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with cooking parchment paper. In 1-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, stirring constantly, until light golden brown. Remove from heat; cool 15 minutes.
• In large bowl, beat browned butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla and egg with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. On low speed, beat in flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in chocolate chips and pecans.
• Onto cookie sheets, drop dough by heaping tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart. (Dough will be slightly crumbly. Use hands to mound dough on cookie sheets.)
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 10 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.

Steps:

• Place butter in a microwave-safe bowl and cover with parchment paper. Place a microwave-safe plate over the parchment paper to hold it down. Microwave butter for 5 minutes. Check butter; continue to microwave in 30-second intervals if needed, until butter is golden brown and has released a nutty aroma, an additional 30 to 90 seconds.
• Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl and set aside.
• Beat brown butter, brown sugar, and sugar together in another bowl until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla and egg and mix until well blended. Add flour mixture and chocolate chips; mix until incorporated. Place dough in a container and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours to 24 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Scoop cookies with a medium-sized cookie scoop and set on the prepared baking sheet, 2 inches apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned on the edges, 13 to 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack.
