Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over medium heat. Stir constantly until it turns a golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned butter with 3/4 cup granulated sugar and 3/4 cup brown sugar. Whisk until well combined.
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 egg yolk, mixing until smooth. Stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- While the dough chills, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Once chilled, use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
