Brown Butter Cowgirl Cookies

Share with your friends!

      These cookies are a perfect way to quiet your sweet tooth.  The brown butter adds depth of flavor and the final results are the perfect mix of chewy delicious oatmeal and chocolate cookies.  A pinch of salt on top is optional, but adds one more layer of flavor.  Make a batch to share or make some and freeze the extra for when you need to treat yourself!

Saving some cookies for later, how to freeze cookies or cookie dough:

       If you don’t need the whole batch at once, there are two great ways to save some for later.  Of course you can just freeze the cookies.

       Place baked cookies in freezer bags and take them out as you want to.  But for the taste (and smell!) of fresh baked cookies, you can also freeze the dough.

      Our favorite way to do that is to scoop the dough out onto cookie sheets and freeze the balls of dough.  Once the dough is frozen, place the balls of dough into freezer bags and just pull out as many balls of dough as you’d like when the craving strikes.

      You can bake the dough while it is still frozen, no need to defrost.  Just watch the cookies as they will need an extra minute or two in the oven.

If you like your cookies loaded with goodies, you may also like the sweet and salty combination of kitchen sink cookies. Or maybe the buttery melt in your mouth cuppa cookie that’s loaded with a cup of this and a cup of that.

How to cook Brown Butter Cowgirl Cookies

1. Brown butter over medium heat until a nutty brown color. It will most likely foam up and have a few brown specks in it. This is to be expected. Let cool slightly while you gather the remaining ingredients.
2. Beat together brown butter, brown sugar and sugar in your mixing bowl. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. In another bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Stir with a whisk.
4. Add the eggs to the butter mixture, one at a time, mixing after each until incorporated. Stir in the vanilla.
5. Add the flour mixture a little at a time and beat until combined.
6. Stir in the oats, walnuts or pecans and chocolate chips.
7. Refrigerate the dough for at least one hour.
8. Preheat oven to 350 F. Use a medium cookie scoop (or a rounded Tablespoon) of dough per cookie onto a cookie sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
9. When you remove it from the oven, sprinkle each cookie with a pinch of sea salt. 
10. Remove from cookie sheet onto a cooling rack.  Once completely cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature or freeze until ready to eat.
