Ingredients
Butter and Sugars
- 1 cup plus 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- ¾ cup white granulated sugar
- ¾ cup light brown sugar packed
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs at room temp
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
Dry Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 3 tablespoon dried milk powder
Add-ins
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped, roasted pistachios
- sea salt flakes for garnish
Instructions
Making Browned Butter
- Start by browning the butter. Cube the butter into small cubes and place it into a small saucepan.
- Melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter has melted and begins to simmer, reduce the heat to a medium-low.
- As you continue to cook the butter, the foam will settle, and the milk solids will sink to the bottom of the pot.
- Cook until the butter turns a golden-brown color, then remove it from the heat. Strain the butter through a fine-mesh strainer into a large measuring cup.
- Chill the browned butter in the refrigerator for about 1 to 1 ½ hours, until it’s cooled down to room temperature.
Making the Cookie Dough
- Preheat the oven to 375F°. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Pour the cooled, browned butter into a large mixing bowl. Add the white and brown sugars, then use a mixer to cream the butter and sugar together for about 4 minutes.
- Next, add in the eggs and vanilla and beat again for a few minutes.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, sea salt, and dried milk powder. Add the dry ingredients to the creamed butter and mix just until well combined.
- Add the white chocolate chips and chopped pistachios last and fold them into the cookie dough.
- Use a large measuring scoop (1 ½ tablespoons) to measure out the dough for each cookie onto the prepared baking sheet.
Baking Instructions
- Bake the cookies at 375F° for exactly 10 minutes.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately sprinkle with sea salt flakes.
- Transfer the cookies onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Allow cookies to cool slightly before enjoying. Store in an airtight container at room temperature or freeze for longer storage.
