About this Recipe

The classic chocolate chip cookie gets a deeper kick of flavor here, thanks to browned butter. For thicker, chewier cookies, portion dough, cover and let rest in refrigerator for at least 1 hour before baking. For thinner, crispier cookies, bake right away. This recipe bakes 6 cookies, and yields enough dough for a few more batches. Portioned cookie dough can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
