Salty Brown Butter Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
Makes 1 dozen cookies
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, browned and set aside to cool*
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup medium-dark brown sugar**
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Maldon salt (or other coarse sea salt), for sprinkling

Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside. In a separate bowl, beat together brown butter, sugar, and brown sugar for 2-3 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla and beat for an additional minute until fluffy. Stir in the dry ingredients, followed by the white and dark chocolate chips, until just combined. Roll the dough out into a 12-14 inch thick log and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours (this will give the cookie a chewy consistency). Once the dough is chilled, preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Slice the dough log into 1/2 inch thick rounds and divide between two baking sheets, making sure to give adequate space between each cookie (I do about 2 cookies per baking sheet, but you might be able to fit more!). Bake for 10 minutes total (or until golden brown and soft in the center), rotating the baking sheets halfway through for even baking. Remove from the oven and transfer to a cooling rack immediately. Let cool for 5 minutes. Serve.

*To brown the butter, melt on medium-low heat. Continue heating once the butter has completely melted. The butter will begin to foam and pop, then slowly turn brown-ish in color. Keep an eye on it–you don’t want it to burn! Make sure to scrape the pan of the browned bits at the bottom, as this is that delicious flavor you want!
**Do not use light brown sugar. I used a darker (but not super dark) brown sugar. The reasoning? Brown sugar is molasses and granulated sugar, and the molasses is what gives moisture and chewiness to a cookie recipe. If you use light brown sugar, this means there is less molasses. Do as you will, though. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

    Yesterday, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad
    and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop,
    just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.

    I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!

    and even if you have to purchase pieces separately instead of as a set, you’re
    more likely to find furniture that matches. You can find all kinds of varieties of artificial plants at
    one place i. Cinema Shop offers a wide variety starting at right
    around $300; they have nacho and sno-cone machines, as well.

    One of the main misconceptions about glass is that it is rather dull with practically no privacy. With all
    the new advances in technology- that is simply just not the case
    anymore.

    Over the years, glass manufacturers have come up with various types of glass like double glazed
    windows and patterned glass. You can use glass doors for your bathroom, patio and other places at your house
    to give your home an ultramodern or elegant look and feel.

    So you do not have to worry about the glass being dull or plain. Purchasing glass that has
    etched designs of nature like flowers and trees or any
    other categories based on your personal taste is possible nowadays.
    So finding the right kind of glass to blend with other furnishings
    in a particular room is indeed possible. There is no shortage of choices in terms of glass design. 

    Another benefit of glass is in terms of insulation. Glass is
    not a good conductor of heat. During our hot summer season, with all the advances in energy
    efficiency with glass, glass will not absorb heat, making the room hotter.
    During a winter or autumn period, glass will not cause much heat
    loss. 

    So you and your family might enjoy a more cooling effect
    during summer and a warmer effect during winter or autumn. You also save money in terms of utility
    bills. Since there is less heat loss, you can turn down the heating system to a lower temperature, which results in less energy consumption. During
    summer, there would not be any necessity to lower
    the temperature. 

    Another benefit of using glass doors and windows is that it just makes your home brighter and more cheerful feeling.
    With our famous sunny days, there might be no necessity to switch on lights to light up a particular
    place since there is sufficient natural light.
