Best Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe - How To Make Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Step 1In a small skillet or saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Stirring occasionally, continue to cook butter and bring to a simmer. Let butter simmer until butter starts to turn golden. Once butter quiets and stops sizzling, give it another stir and check that it has turned a deep golden color. Remove from heat and pour into a medium heatproof bowl, scraping all of the brown bits into the bowl. Let cool for about 15 or 20 minutes.

Step 2Add milk powder to browned butter and whisk until dissolved. Add sugars and whisk until combined, then add eggs and vanilla and whisk until creamy.

Step 3In another medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together. Add dry ingredients to wet and stir with rubber spatula until just combined. Add chocolate chips and stir to combine.

Step 4Cover in plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours.

Step 5Preheat oven to 350° and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment. Scoop about 2 tablespoons worth of dough and roll into a ball. Place on prepared baking sheets 2” apart.

Step 6Bake until edges are golden and set and middles are still soft 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to let cool completely.
