These delectable cookies combine the rich flavors of smoked salt and browned butter with the sweetness of chocolate chips.
Ingredients: 1 cup unsalted butter. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 cup brown sugar. 2 large eggs. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon baking soda. 1/2 teaspoon smoked salt. 2 cups chocolate chips. 1/2 cup chopped nuts optional.
Instructions: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, swirling occasionally, until the butter turns a deep golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the browned butter to the sugars and mix until well combined. Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and smoked salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts if using. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight. Preheat the oven to 375F 190C and line baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers are still slightly soft. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
