Chocolate Chip Cookie

Yield: 12 Cookies

Ingredients

• 200g butter
• 150g brown sugar
• 60g white sugar
• 1 whole egg + 1 egg yolk
• 250g all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1 cup chocolate chips/chunks (or more to taste)

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. In a pan, brown the butter till it smells nutty, this will take a few minutes but be patient, it can burn quickly if not paying attention.
3. Add the white and brown sugar to a bowl, pour in the browned butter and mix until the sugar has dissolved. To this, crack the eggs and whisk until it becomes light in colour and fluffier, I use an electric whisk and let it run for 3-5 mins.
4. Stir in the flour until the dough is soft and sticky, then fold in the chocolate chips. Scoop onto a lined baking tray, spacing them out evenly, and bake for 12–15 minutes until the edges are golden. Let them cool slightly before serving.
