These Brown Sugar Cookies are absolutely delicious – sweet, chewy, and soft with the deep toasty flavor of browned butter. I love to make a batch of these if I have some unexpected visitors. They go down a treat with tea or coffee.
Start by melting butter while whisking constantly until the butter begins to brown. Add to a bowl and set aside. Combine most of the dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Combine remaining brown sugar and salt with butter and whisk until smooth. Whisk in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla. Stir wet and dry ingredients together until a dough forms. Roll the dough out and use a cookie cutter to create cookies. Place them on a cookie sheet and sprinkle with sugar before baking until cookies begin to set.
To make Brown Sugar Cookies, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt 10 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Whisk for about 3-4 minutes constantly until the butter starts to brown. Pour the browned butter into a bowl. Add remaining 4 tablespoons of butter to the same bowl and set aside.
In a separate bowl whisk together ¼ cup of sugar, ¼ cup brown sugar, 2 cups and 2 tablespoons of flour, ½ teaspoon of baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon of baking powder.
Add remaining brown sugar and salt to the butter and whisk until smooth.
Whisk in 1 large egg, 1 egg yolk, and 1 tablespoon of vanilla.
Combine the butter mixture with the dry ingredient mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
Roll the dough out to ½-inch thick. Use a cookie cutter to shape cookies. Place them on a baking sheet.
Sprinkle each cookie with sugar.
Bake in the oven for 12-14 minutes.
Once cooked, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve with tea or coffee.
