crispy edges, soft middle, loads of chocolate, and the nutty brown butter flavour is just delicious

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Cube the butter and melt it in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly.

  2. 2

    Keep going until the froth settles down, the butter turns a deep golden brown, and you can see dark specks at the bottom.

  3. 3

    Let it cool slightly.

  4. 4

    Whisk together the brown butter and sugar.

  5. 5

    Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix again.

  6. 6

    Add the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt.

  7. 7

    Mix until a dough forms, then fold through the chocolate chunks.

  8. 8

    Roll tablespoon-sized amounts into balls.

  9. 9

    I made 8 because I have absolutely no self-control around cookie dough, but you could definitely get more if you’re stronger than me.

  10. 10

    Freeze overnight.

  11. 11

    Bake at 180°C for around 20 mins until golden.
