These are not your average chocolate chip cookies! If you are a team crisp cookie, this cookie recipe is for you. Browned butter gives them a nice nutty flavor. Browning the butter takes a little time but be patient. It is worth the time. This should be your go haveto recipe the next time you are in need of a chocolate fix. The browned butter gives it a nutty flavor and adds to the richness of these cookies. I learned that lemon juice helps to activate the baking soda!

Ingredients :
- 2 1/4 cup(s) bread flour
- 1 teaspoon(s) Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon(s) baking soda
- 2 stick(s) butter, unsalted
- 1/4 cup(s) sugar
- 1 1/4 cup(s) brown sugar, dark, firmly packed
- 1 tablespoon(s) half and half cream (or milk)
- 1 tablespoon(s) freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 cup(s) chocolate chips (bittersweet)
Intructions :
- Sift together flour, salt, and baking soda; set aside
- Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Continue to cook on low heat, stirring often, until the butter is browned
- Turn off the heat and stir in white and brown sugars
- Scrape into a medium mixing bowl and use an electric mixer to cream the butter and sugars together. Add half & half, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix in until well combined
- Add half of the flour mixture and incorporate it into the batter with an electric mixer. Add the rest and mix until thoroughly combined
- Stir in the chocolate chips. The cookie dough will be very soft and buttery. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill until firm (an hour or two)
- Preheat oven to 375F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop up heaping tablespoonfuls of cookie dough and use your hands to roll into balls. Place 12 balls on a sheet, keeping about an inch and a half between each ball
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on how large you\u2019ve rolled your balls (mine took 11 minutes).
