Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Brown the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until golden brown and smells nutty.
- In a large bowl, combine brown sugar and granulated sugar with the browned butter and whisk until smooth.
- Crack in two large eggs and whisk until fully incorporated.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mix into your wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
- Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto lined baking sheets.
- Bake for about 12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden but centers remain soft.
- Transfer to plates and enjoy warm or let cool completely.
Notes
Chill dough for fluffier results or up to 24 hours for deeper flavor. For a chocolate chip variation, add semisweet chocolate chips.
