Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Cup Brown Butter (2 sticks of butter made into brown butter)
- 1 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1/2 Cup Sugar
- 2 Teaspoon Vanilla
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Teaspoon Espresso Powder
- 1 Teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
- 2 1/4 Cup Flour
- 1/2 Cup Dark Chocolate Chips or Chunks
- 1/2 Cup White Chocolate Chips
Instructions
-
- In a large shallow skillet over medium heat, melt 2 sticks of butter. Continue cooking, watching closely, until the butter turns a caramel color with brown bits on the bottom and a nutty aroma, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely (pro tip - pour the brown butter into your stand mixer bowl and place in the fridge to speed up the process of chilling for about 20 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixer, beat cooled brown butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for 1-2 minutes. Scrape the sides of the bowl.
- Add vanilla and eggs; mix about 30 seconds until just combined and lighter in color. Scrape down the bowl.
- Add espresso powder, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and flour. Mix for about 30 seconds - there will still be flour streaks remaining.
- Add in white and dark chocolate chips and finish mixing the dough completely until all the flour is mixed in.
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop our dough onto a baking sheet (8-12 cookies per sheet). Bake 9–11 minutes (10 minutes is my sweet spot, but ovens may vary).
- Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Notes
- This dough freezes beautifully! Make an entire batch of cookies and scoop out into balls on a baking sheet. Place baking sheet in the freezer for 20 minutes until cookie dough balls are firm then transfer to a freezer safe gallon ziplock bag. Keep for up to 1 month. To bake, bake at 325 for 10-11 minutes. Bake as many or as few as you want and always have fresh cookie dough on hand!
- You can use 1 cup of any combo of chips you like. All chocolate chips, all white chocolate, milk, semi-sweet, dark or even throw some PB chips in. I usually do a combination of all the above and whatever I have in the house.
