Ingredients:
- 115g unsalted butter
- 100g sugar
- 100g brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 185g all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- A mix of dark and milk chocolates (as desired)
Instructions:
- Start by making brown butter. Melt the butter in a pan, stirring continuously for 5-10 minutes until brown bits form at the bottom. Remove from heat, pour into a bowl, and let cool completely.
- To the cooled brown butter, add both brown sugar and granulated sugar, and mix until combined.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Sift the dry ingredients (flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt) into the butter mixture and stir until just combined.
- Fold in chunks of dark and milk chocolates.
- For best results, refrigerate the cookie dough overnight. However, you can bake immediately if desired.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F). Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet, spacing them apart.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy with milk or coffee for a perfect pairing!
