Time 1h30m

Yield 35

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ cups unsalted butter, cut into slices
35 caramel-filled milk chocolate kisses (such as Hershey's Kisses®), unwrapped
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
sea salt to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a large, heavy-bottom skillet over medium heat. Add all of the butter at once and allow to melt, stirring continuously, until it begins to foam and turn brown in color, about 5 minutes. Continue to stir over medium heat until the foam has subsided. Remove the pan from heat and continue to stir until the butter is a medium golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Place unwrapped chocolate kisses in the freezer.
  • Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Combine browned butter, brown sugar, and white sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla extract; mix well. Slowly incorporate flour mixture into butter mixture, mixing until well combined; do not overmix. Allow dough to chill in the refrigerator for 40 to 60 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Drop chilled dough by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are light golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes.
  • Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for exactly 4 minutes. Gently press a caramel-chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie; press slightly into cookie and not just placed on top. Sprinkle a scant pinch of sea salt over the center of the cookies and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack. Refrigerate if necessary to re-harden caramel kisses.

Yield Makes 13 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1/2 cup lightly packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Coarse-flake sea salt for sprinkling (preferably fleur de sel)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325˚F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it starts to brown. When the butter has browned and is ready, the foam will have subsided and it will have turned a nutty color. Watch closely so as not to burn the butter. Pour the browned butter into a medium bowl and stir in the brown sugar and vanilla. In a small bowl, whisk the flour and baking powder together. With a spoon, stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture until combined. Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls onto the cookie sheet. Sprinkle with sea salt and lightly press it into the top of cookies. Bake for 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • Make sure the butter is appropriately browned. Under-browned butter will have a flat flavor, while over-browned butter will be bitter.
  • Use a light-colored brown sugar to avoid overpowering the caramel flavor.
  • For a chewier cookie, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set around the edges but still soft in the center.
  • Allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

Salted caramel brown butter cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion.
