Indulge in the delightful flavors of these Brown Butter Sugar Cookies, where nutty richness meets chewy sweetness, perfect for any occasion!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Brown the Butter: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter, stirring continuously until it turns golden brown and releases a nutty aroma (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  2. Mix Sugars: In a mixing bowl, combine the packed brown sugar and granulated sugar. Pour in the browned butter and mix until well combined.
  3. Add Vanilla and Egg: Stir in the pure vanilla extract and the large egg until fully incorporated.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  5. Chill (Optional): For extra chewiness, cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
  6. Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them two inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden but centers remain soft.
  7. Cool: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet before transferring them to a plate.
