Instructions

  1. Brown the butter in a light pan over medium heat, swirling, until nutty and amber. Pour into a bowl and cool 10 minutes.
  2. Whisk in both sugars, then the egg, yolk, and vanilla until glossy.
  3. Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt, then the chocolate.
  4. Chill the dough at least 1 hour (or up to 72 hours).
  5. Scoop 2-Tbsp balls onto lined sheets and bake at 350°F for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underdone.
  6. Sprinkle with flaky salt and cool on the sheet 5 minutes.

Baker's tip

Bang the pan on the counter right out of the oven for rippled, chewy cookies.
