Description

Soft, chewy cookies made with nutty brown butter, melty chocolate, and buttery toffee pieces for a rich bakery-style flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, browned and cooled
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup toffee bits

  2. Combine the cooled brown butter with both sugars until glossy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla and mix until smooth.
  4. Whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Stir in chocolate chips and toffee bits evenly.
