Ingredients

  • 120 g unsalted butter
  • 75 g castor sugar
  • 75 g brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon 5g vanilla extract
  • 100 g all purpose flour
  • 80 g cake flour
  • ½ teaspoon 3g baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon 3g salt
  • 150 g dark chocolate

Instructions

  • Add butter to a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Whisk frequently as it melts and keep your eye out for brown specks and a delicious nutty aroma. Once browned, remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 170ºC. Line a tray with baking paper.
  • In a bowl add sugars and cooled brown butter. Stir together. Add egg and vanilla extract and mix.
  • Add flours, baking soda and salt and fold through until just combined.
  • Roughly chop chocolate. Add to cookie dough and mix through. Cover dough and allow to chill for at least 20 minutes.
  • Using an ice cream scoop, scoop balls of dough on to the prepared baking tray, careful to not overcrowd. (I used two trays). Bake for 12 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
