Browned butter chocolate chip cookies


 Ingredients:

one cup of butter- starting weight 236 gr after browning 189 gr

2 cups of flour (I am considering adding more flour)

2 TBS cornstarch

1 t baking soda

1/4 t baking powder

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 cup light brown sugar

2 t vanilla extract

2 large eggs

2 cups of chocolate- can by chips or chopped bars of dark, semi sweet, or milk chocolate


Procedure:cook two sticks of butter on medium heat for about 5-8 minutes, watching closely for the butter to foam and the milk solids to start to brown. Remove from heat and pour into dish to refrigerate until solid.
Browning the butter adds flavor to the cookies, and reduces the amount of liquid in the recipe. If you need to add more liquid, add a tablespoon or two of milk.
Cream butter with sugars, add eggs one at a time and add vanilla.

In a separate bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, backing soda, baking powder. Add dry ingredients to wet and mix briefly to combine. Add chocolate of your choice. Scoop by the ice cream scoop of your choice and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. 

Bake at 350 degrees on an ungreased cookie sheet. No need for parchment. 15 minutes for smaller cookies, 18 minutes for larger cookies.
