Ingredients
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
Directions
Special equipment:
a 2-ounce cookie scoop- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Heat the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, swirling constantly, until the butter is melted and the bubbling subsides. Continue swirling the butter gently until it turns deep golden brown with a nutty aroma, about 6 minutes. Transfer immediately to a large bowl.
- Whisk in the brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract and egg until just combined.
- Whisk or sift the baking soda into the flour in a medium bowl. Fold the flour mixture into the butter mixture until just combined. Add the chocolate chips and fold again or use your hands to mix until combined.
- Using a 2-ounce cookie scoop, scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a measuring cup or bottom of a water glass to flatten the cookies. Bake until the edges are golden brown and the center is still gooey, 10 to 11 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
