Description

Ingredients

• 14 tablespoons salted butter (1¾ sticks)
• 1¾ cups packed light brown sugar
• 2¼ cups flour
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 egg plus 1 egg yolk
• 1½ Tbsp vanilla
• ¼ cup granulated sugar
• ¼ cup light brown sugar
• ½ cup light brown sugar (packed)
• 3 tablespoons butter
• ¼ cup milk
• 2 cups sifted powdered sugar

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350° and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Heat butter in medium skillet over medium heat until melted. When butter melts slowly swirl the pan and continue to cook the butter until it becomes a nice, brown-caramel color. The swirling helps it from burning. Let cool for 15 minutes.
• Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl and set aside.
• When butter is cooled mix 1¾ cup light brown sugar and browned butter with electric mixer until no lumps remain, about 30 seconds.
• Add egg, yolk and vanilla and mix for another 30 seconds, until smooth.
• Slowly add in your flour mixture and mix on medium-low until incorporated.
• Combine remaining ¼ cup brown sugar and ¼ cup granulated sugar in a small bowl.
• Roll cookie dough into balls and then roll in sugar mixture.
• Place on lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
• Bake approx 10-12 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Do not over-bake.
• Transfer to wire rack to cool.
• Combine brown sugar and butter in small saucepan over medium heat.
• Bring to a boil and continue cooking 1 minute. Remove from heat and cool for 10 minutes. Mixture will slightly thicken.
• With hand mixer beat in milk until smooth. Slowly add in powdered sugar until spreadable consistency. ( I used all 2 cups).
• Spread approx 1 teaspoon on each cookie.
