Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it turns golden brown; let it cool slightly.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the browned butter with both sugars until smooth. Add in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually fold into the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden around the edges but soft in the center. Let cool on the sheets for five minutes before transferring to wire racks.
