- 1 1/4 Cups Packed Brown Sugar
- 1/4 Cup Sugar
- 1 Cup Unsalted Brown Butter
- 2 Large Eggs (Room Temp)
- 2 Tsp Vanilla
- 2 1/2 Cups of All Purpose Flour(Spoon & Leveled)
- 1 Tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 Tsp Salt
- 3/4 Cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
- 1/2 Cup Milk Chocolate Chips
- 16 Werther's Caramel's
Instructions
Make sure your eggs are room temperature and this dough will come together beautifully! Makes 16 Cookies.
- Begin by cutting butter into cubes. Next, In a heavy saucepan heat butter over Medium heat to begin the browning process. Stir constantly until the butter begins to turn into a golden brown color. It will be foamy and that is ok. Once the butter has reached that beautiful golden brown color remove from heat and place into a heat safe bowl to cool.
- While your butter cools sift your dry ingredients.
- Preheat oven to 350'F and prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl combine your brown butter and sugars and whisk until combined.
- Add eggs and vanilla and whisk until combined.
- Add your sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture and fold until just combined. Do not over mix.
- Add chocolate chips and fold until combined. Do not over mix.
- Cookies need to be baked right away the dough does not store well.
- Drop the dough by 1/4 cup balls or use an ice cream scoop. Add more chocolate chips on top and cut the werthers into 3 pieces. Place the werthers pieces around the top of the cookie so that it bakes on top and not inside of the cookie where it can stick to the pan. Bake 6 at a time in a large cookie sheet.
- Bake for 10 minutes until golden brown on the bottom.
- When cookies are ready you can fix the shape with a large round cookie cutter or a big measuring cup.(Videos on my insta for reference)
- When you fix the shape of your cookies if you choose to its totally optional. Add more chocolate chips on top! .
TIPS
- Cookies will look a little undone once taken out they will finish baking in the baking sheet out of the oven. Allow them to cool completely to set.
