ingredients
- 1 cup butter, divided into 1 tbsp cubes
- 1 1⁄3 cups dark brown sugar
- 1 egg, Plus
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 2 1⁄2 cups flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄3 cup sugar, for rolling
directions
- In a small sauce pan, divide 10 of the cubed butter pieces and melt and brown the butter until it becomes very dark. It should take about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to burn it.
- Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, place the rest of the cubed butter. When the browned butter is ready, add to the cubed butter to the bowl. Allow it all to cool for a couple of minutes.
- While it's cooling, in a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to combine.
- Mix the butter mixture with the brown sugar with a wire whisk until all is incorperated. Add the egg and egg yolk, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
- Using a rubber spatula, stir in in the flour and mix well.
- Roll the dough into balls and roll them into the 1/3 cup of sugar. Bake on a cookie sheet at 375* for 9-11 minutes. I usually bake at 10 and they're perfect for my oven.
- Remove the baked cookies from the baking sheet and cool on a cooling rack.
