Brown sugar cookies recipe
Ingredients:
1/2 cup salted butter (melted and cooled slightly) 113g
3/4 packed brown sugar (light or dark) 135g
1 large room temperature egg 50-55g
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4g
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt 1.5g
1 + 1/3 cup all purpose flour 175g

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F/175C. Line cookie sheets/baking pans with parchment paper. In a large bowl combine melted butter and brown sugar. Whisk vigorously for 1-2 minutes until the butter and sugar are well incorporated and the mixture is thick in texture. Add the egg, vanilla and sea salt. Continue whisking for another 1-2 minutes until everything is well combined and the mixture is light and airy in texture and glossy in colour. Sprinkle the flour over the top of the mixture and using a spatula mix until just combined and no streaks or flour remain. Using a 3/4 tablespoon cookie scoop drop cookies onto prepare pans, ensuring that you leave a little room for spreading. Bake for 7-8 minutes, take them out as soon as the bottoms are golden brown and then immediately transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. This recipe will make approximately 30 small (3/4 tablespoon) or 15 regular (1 +1/2 tablespoon) cookies. If using. a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop increase baking time by approximately 2 minutes.

i made this and it is SOOO good. I did something wrong with the batter because it took double the time to cook but it still turned out soft and crispy at the bottom. thanks

I made this, and they came out very well. I added a little bit more flour since it's too sweet for my taste. 🤗 I also added some nuts.

[audreysfunshorts]

Wow thank you so much this is easy and fast to make this helped alot

[cherrycola]

These came out delicious. I had salted butter, so I didn't use salt and only had rum, then vs. vanilla. I used a cookie cutter just for an indent in the center of the cookie for aesthetics, so i didn't push thru the entire cookie. And I don't like overly sweet desserts. These were so perfect, not that sweet at all. I am gonna make more and add these to the holidays. Thank u for sharing.

I just did this recipe, but didn't have any eggs, so I subbed 1 tablespoon of yogurt and 2 tablespoons of water. They turned out nice and fluffy!

[brainbuzters]

These were great!! 🤤🤤 for people that does not like it to be too sweet like me I would recommend putting lesser sugar than this recipe. Thank you! ❤

[missnelly]

I grab a table spoon rinse it with cold water and press down each scoop. This is my hack for a thin and crispy cookie as I prefer a not so doughy cookie.

[KitchenWizard]

Wow! What to say! Absolutely brilliant. I am interested for the next one. Stay connected. 😍👍😋💚Cheers.

Hello ! I would love to do this but the only issue is that I don't have salted butter. So can I use unsalted butter instead ?
