    These cookies are life-changing! I use Finlandia butter because it has a higher fat percentage so the cookies are extra chewy and rich.

    These brown butter chocolate chip cookies are made by browning Finlandia butter. Browning the butter adds a delicious, elevated taste to classic chocolate chip cookies.

    This recipe was inspired by my Kerrygold Snickerdoodle Cookie recipe. Make sure to have a glass of milk handy!

    Scoop the cookie into large balls and place them on the baking sheet.

    Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Take the cookies out every 5 minutes and pound the baking sheet on the counter to flatten the cookies.

    After 20 minutes, remove the cookies from the oven and cool.

    Enjoy!

    Hint: use a cookie scoop to get evenly-sized cookies. Find the one I use HERE. 

    Equipment

    • Three glass bowls - I LOVE this set (click HERE). It's the only set of bowls you'll ever need!
    • A baking sheet - I really like baking with quarter baking sheets because they don't take up too much space. Find a great set HERE.
    • Precut parchment paper - ok this specific one fits perfectly on quarter baking sheets. Find them HERE.
    • An electric mixer - way easier than mixing by hand! Find a great option HERE.

    Storage

    Store these cookies in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. You can also store the cookies in a freezer-safe bag and store them in the freezer for six months.

    Top tip

    Save one or two balls of dough and put them in the freezer in a freezer-safe bag. Then you have a cookie on hand if you ever want just one or two!
