Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, browned
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Add-ins

  • 1 cup toffee bits
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cookie removal and cleanup.
  2. Browning the Butter: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring frequently. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the butter turns golden brown and releases a nutty aroma, then remove from heat to prevent burning.
  3. Mix Sugars and Butter: In a mixing bowl, combine the browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Add Egg and Vanilla: Add the room temperature egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mix. Beat until the mixture is creamy and fully incorporated, ensuring an even batter.
  5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to distribute the leavening agent and seasoning evenly.
  6. Mix Dry into Wet: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
  7. Add Toffee and Chocolate Chips: Fold in the toffee bits and chocolate chips carefully to ensure even distribution throughout the dough.
  8. Shape Cookies: Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  9. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. Cookies should be golden brown around the edges but remain soft in the center.
  10. Cool: Remove cookies from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, allowing flavors to set.

Notes

  • Make sure the butter is browned carefully to avoid burning; it should be golden with a nutty aroma.
  • Use room temperature egg for better mixing and texture.
  • Do not overmix the dough once the flour is added to maintain chewy cookies.
  • Spacing cookies about 2 inches apart prevents them from merging during baking.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
