Ingredients
For the Browned Butter:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, browned and cooled
For the Cookie Dough:
- 1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
- Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Brown the Butter: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until it turns golden brown with a nutty aroma, about 5–7 minutes. Let it cool completely.
- Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Fold in the chocolate chips, chopped chocolate, and marshmallows.
- Chill the Dough: Cover the dough and chill it for at least 30 minutes.
- Bake the Cookies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop the dough onto prepared baking sheets, sprinkle with sea salt if desired, and bake for 10–12 minutes. Let the cookies cool before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
- Chilling the dough enhances flavor and prevents spreading.
- For a variation, try using caramel bits instead of marshmallows.
- Using a mix of chocolates adds depth to the cookies.
