Brown sugar cookies recipe
Ingredients:
1/2 cup salted butter (melted and cooled slightly) 113g
3/4 packed brown sugar (light or dark) 135g
1 large room temperature egg 50-55g
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4g
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt 1.5g
1 + 1/3 cup all purpose flour 175g

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F/175C. Line cookie sheets/baking pans with parchment paper. In a large bowl combine melted butter and brown sugar. Whisk vigorously for 1-2 minutes until the butter and sugar are well incorporated and the mixture is thick in texture. Add the egg, vanilla and sea salt. Continue whisking for another 1-2 minutes until everything is well combined and the mixture is light and airy in texture and glossy in colour. Sprinkle the flour over the top of the mixture and using a spatula mix until just combined and no streaks or flour remain. Using a 3/4 tablespoon cookie scoop drop cookies onto prepare pans, ensuring that you leave a little room for spreading. Bake for 7-8 minutes, take them out as soon as the bottoms are golden brown and then immediately transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. This recipe will make approximately 30 small (3/4 tablespoon) or 15 regular (1 +1/2 tablespoon) cookies. If using. a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop increase baking time by approximately 2 minutes.
