Ingredients (10 items)

24 servings

0/10 gathered

  • 1 cup butter — browned and cooled
  • 1 cup brown sugar — packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp flaky sea salt — for topping

Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown butter in a saucepan until nutty and amber. Cool to room temperature.

    ~8 min

    Tip: Pour into a bowl to stop the cooking.

  2. 2

    Whisk brown butter with both sugars until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then vanilla.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. Fold into wet ingredients until just combined.

  4. 4

    Fold in chocolate chips. Refrigerate dough for at least 30 minutes (overnight is best).

    ~30 min

    Tip: Chilling develops deeper flavor and prevents spreading.

  5. 5

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Scoop dough into 2-tablespoon balls onto lined baking sheets.

  6. 6

    Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers look slightly underdone.

    ~12 min
  7. 7

    Immediately sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Cool on pan for 5 minutes before transferring.
