BROWN BUTTER COOKIES
Using butter (NOT margarine) is essential for the success of this rich, but highly addictive cookie! You may need as little as 3 cups confectioners' sugar for the icing; just stop adding it when you've reached the desired consistency.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat butter over medium heat for 5 minutes or so, until it turns nut brown in color. The foaming and bubbling is part of the browning process, but watch it carefully so that you don't burn the butter. Remove from heat, and cool slightly. Reserve 1/2 cup of the butter for the frosting.
- Pour remaining browned butter into a large mixing bowl. Beat browned butter with brown sugar until the butter is no longer hot. Mix in eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Beat thoroughly. Mix in flour and chopped pecans. Drop tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until light brown around the edges. Cool.
- In a medium bowl, mix the reserved 1/2 cup browned butter with 2 teaspoons vanilla, confectioners' sugar, and hot water. Beat until smooth, and use to frost cooled cookies.

Tips:
- Use high-quality cocoa powder. This is the most important ingredient in the cookies, so don't skimp. Look for a cocoa powder that is dark and rich in color, and has a strong chocolate flavor.
- Brown the butter. This step adds a nutty, caramelized flavor to the cookies that really takes them to the next level. Be sure to watch the butter carefully so that it doesn't burn.
- Chill the dough before baking. This helps the cookies to hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will dry them out and make them crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before glazing them. This will help the glaze to set properly.
Conclusion:
These cocoa drop cookies with browned butter glaze are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are rich, chocolatey, and have a slightly chewy texture that is irresistible. The browned butter glaze adds a touch of sweetness and a beautiful shine that makes them look as good as they taste.
