Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Brown the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until melted and nutty in aroma; let cool slightly.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add cooled brown butter and mix until creamy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time and blend in vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually incorporate dry ingredients into the wet mixture without overmixing.
  5. Cover dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
