Who can resist the joy of homemade cookies? While classic recipes hold a special place in our hearts, I assure you that these Brown Butter Anna’s Chocolate Chip Cookies take the experience to a whole new level. I can’t wait for you all to give them a try!

I debated how to “title” them but ultimately decided it was best if I just said how it is, these are Anna’s cookies and everyone knows that she makes them.

In our family, my daughter Anna is the reigning baking queen. Although I dabble in some desserts, bread, and various baked goods, she truly shines when it comes to cookies and cakes.

Anna's Chocolate Chip Cookies

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Baking Time: 18 minutes
Additional Time: 1 day
Total Time: 1 day 28 minutes

COOKIES are such an amazing treat and we have been enjoying these for many years.

Ingredients

  • 2 sticks unsalted butter

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 cup lightly packed dark brown sugar

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

  • 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder (optional)
  • 
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 
2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • Flaky sea salt, for finishing (optional)

Instructions

Brown Butter:


  1. In a skillet set over medium-high heat, melt the unsalted butter. Swirling the pan occasionally, continue to cook the butter. You must constantly stir or swirl. It should become foamy with a popping sound. This way we are removing dairy from our butter.
  2. Continue to swirl the pan or stir until the butter develops a very nutty aroma and brown bits start to form at the bottom.
  3. Once the bits are amber in color, remove them from heat and add two ice cubes.

Making Dough:


  1. With an electric mixer, mix the brown butter and sugars until well combined, about 1 minute.
  2. Beat in the eggs, and vanilla, until combined. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, instant espresso powder (optional) and sea salt in a separate large bowl.
  3. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat on low speed just until combined.
  4. Add chocolate chips and mix on low speed until incorporated into the dough.

Resting:


  1. Now, you could make a cookie log, wrap it, and then slice cookies for baking, or use an ice cream scoop to make cookie dough balls and place it on the sheet then chill your dough for 24 hours in the fridge (After they chill you can place them in ziplock bag and freeze).
  2. Trust me on this one. The dough needs to chill to be perfect, and 24 hours is perfect time for these cookies to be amazing.


Baking:


  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place cookies on the pan, about 8 at a time (9x12 baking sheet), creating a bit of room for them to rise. I like adding a few extra chocolate chips on the top, but it isn't necessary.
  2. If they are larger I will bake them for 20 minutes, if they are regular-size cookies, 17 to 18 minutes at 350F or until the edges begin to turn golden brown. They will look underdone in the middle but while they are cooling they will continue to cook.

Notes

If you are making smaller cookies you can most definitely end up with more than 32 cookies.

You can bake them right after they chill, about an hour or so, they would taste great, or after 12 hours, but if you are patient, please give them a try after 24 hours in the fridge. You will be pleasantly surprised.
