Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Brown Butter Sea Salt Chocolate Chip Cookies are a gourmet twist on the classic favorite. Nutty, caramelized brown butter adds depth and richness, while dark chocolate chunks melt into gooey pockets throughout each soft, chewy bite. A light sprinkle of flaky sea salt balances the sweetness and enhances the chocolate, creating the perfect sweet-salty harmony. These cookies are crisp on the edges, soft in the center, and full of complex, toasty flavor
