browned butter all the chips cookies

THESE COOKIES.

For the big cookie dough fundraiser we made five different kinds of cookies and they're all my faves. Supposedly a mama bear can't have actual favorites, and this is how I feel about my precious little cookie offspring.

But these are...quite good HELLA TASTY.

It's the browned butter. Worth every second of the 7ish minutes it takes to make. [Not inculding cooling time, but you're not actually doing anything while it cools besides watching Parks and Rec reruns.]

Let's make cookies.

Could you stick your face in there for a minute and just smell the butter? It's just butter, but browned and toasty. HOLY HAPPY BATMAN.

Browned Butter All the Chips Cookies
2 sticks butter, browned and room temp
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 egg, 1 egg yolk
1 3/4 cup AP flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 cup mixed chips [mini, semi-sweet, milk, and white]

Add the browned butter to your mixer and mix until light and creamy in color and texture. Add the sugars. Once everything is well mixed, add the vanilla, egg, and yolk. Slowly add the flour, salt and baking soda until the flour is incorporated and dough pulls away from the edges of your bowl. Stir in the chips. Bake at 350 for 10-14 minutes, the edges will be lightly browned.

Yield: 22 cookies, 3 Tbsp scoop


Tips:
*cool your browned butter and then bring it back to room temperature
*you CAN bake these right away, but from the frozen cookie dough experience I recently had...they seem almost better from a rest to let everything meld prior to baking

*in further experiments if you rest your dough for at least an hour (I just let it sit on the counter for an hour-ish), it works out quite well
*if you don't have mini chips, semi-sweet chips, milk chocolate chips, AND white chocolate chips you can just use what you have. it's fine. I promise.
*did you get a cookie scoop yet? GET A COOKIE SCOOP.
*this recipe doubles easily, just double it. what else are you going to do with the other 2 sticks of butter in the pound?
*share with your work friends so you don't accidentally eat all the cookies. this will also give you friends for life. you're welcome.
