Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 9×9 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
2. In a small saucepan, add butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter turns a light, golden brown. Remove from heat. Pour the browned butter into a bowl, so that the butter stops browning and doesn’t get too dark. Allow to cool while you measure out the remaining ingredients for your cookies.
3. In a large bowl, add sugars, cooled brown butter, eggs and vanilla extract. Stir to combine, then add sifted flour, baking soda, cornstarch and salt. Mix just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
4. Scoop cookie dough into prepared 9×9 inch pan. Flatten into a fairly even layer. You can add a few extra chocolate chips on top if you would like (mostly just for appearance).
5. Bake in preheated oven 30-32 minutes, or until edges are light golden brown.
