- 1 and 1/4 cup of flour (156 g)
- 1/4 cup of regular sugar (50 g)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla (5 ml)

💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Brown your butter to 250-300°F until it reaches a deep amber color and smells nutty, which triggers Maillard reaction between milk solids and sugars to create hundreds of new flavor compounds absent in melted butter.technique250-300°F
- ✓Let browned butter cool to at least 100°F before mixing with sugar and egg, otherwise residual heat will scramble the egg proteins and melt sugar crystals prematurely, causing cookies to spread too thin.timing100°F
- ✓Rest the mixed dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (ideally 24-72 hours) so flour fully hydrates and butter re-solidifies, slowing spread during baking and concentrating caramelized flavors.timing30 min-72 hours
- ✓Measure flour by weight at 150g per cup rather than scooping with a measuring cup, since scooping can pack in up to 20% more flour and produce dry, cakey cookies instead of chewy ones.ingredient150g per cup
- ✓Pull cookies from the oven at 350°F when edges are set but centers still look slightly underbaked, since residual heat will continue cooking them on the tray for another 2-3 minutes for a soft, chewy center.timing12 min + 2-3 min carryover
