Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chocolate chunks
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it turns a deep golden brown color and smells nutty, about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to burn it. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine browned butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until blended.
Step 4
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chunks using a spatula or a wooden spoon.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop 2-tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
Step 9
Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your decadent brown butter chocolate chunk cookies with a cold glass of milk!
