Category: Cookies
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 & 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
coarse salt, for sprinkling tops of cookies


Place butter in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently. Once butter melts and begins to foam, continue to cook until brown specks begin to appear beneath the foam. Butter will have a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and transfer to a glass bowl. Allow to cool.
Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Beat cooled butter, brown sugar, and sugar until combined. Add egg and vanilla, and mix well. Gradually add flour mixture, mixing just until combined.
Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
Using about a tablespoonful of dough, roll into balls and place on prepared pans. Flatten each ball slightly. Sprinkle coarse salt on tops of cookies. (The amount of salt is a preference thing. I recommend just barely a pinch.)
Bake 12-15 minutes, or until edges of cookies are browned and centers are set. Cool in pans on wire racks for 5-10 minutes. Then, transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
