Browned Butter, Brown Sugar Butterbeer cookies
There are LOTS of Butterbeer cookies out there on the internet, but I couldn't find one that sounded right to me, so I made up my own recipe. Let me just say if you are on a diet DO NOT make these cookies. They smell like heaven and you cannot eat just one. Or at least I couldn't!
The Recipe
1 cup of browned butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/3cup regular sugar
3/4tsp baking soda
1/2tsp salt
1tsp vanilla or butter flavoring
1tsp butterscotch sauce (ice cream topping)
2 2/3cup flour
2 eggs
1 package butterscotch chips ground up
1/3package white chocolate chips ground up
First things first brown your butter. Basically you melt it in a pan and whisk it (so it doesn't burn) until it turns a nice amber color and gets a nutty smell. Whisk constantly and do not leave it unattended or you will burn it! Pour it into a container and put in the fridge to solidify, but do not let it get hard. If you do you will need to take it out and leave it on the counter until it softens back up. Once this has all been done beat the butter and then add the sugars and beat them until they are well creamed together. Add the baking soda, salt, vanilla, butterscotch sauce and mix till incorporated.
Add the flour and eggs and mix till a nice smooth dough is formed.
Put the butterscotch chips and white chocolate chips into a blender or food processor and grind them till they are nice and small. (You can skip this step if you want bigger chunks in your cookies, but by blending it you get a more consistent butterscotch taste to your cookies) Mix the blended chips into the dough. Roll into balls and bake at 325 for 10-15min depending on the size of the cookies.
