Ive made these cookies twice now. Best ever. Additional tips: Make sure your browned butter is cooled down prior to mixing in with sugar. If its warm to your finger, its good to go in. If it feels "hot" let it continue cooling down before the addition. Shift the flour so the addition is even into the mixture. No clumps Use instant expresso powder. Not expresso grind. Dont overmix your final cookie dough until the addition of chocolate. I like to leave the outside bowl coated in alittle white flour until i add the chocolate. Over mixing cookies = denser cookie

A REVIEW NO ONE ASKED FOR BY SOMEONE WHO JUST MADE THE DOUGH A COUPLE MINUTES AGO: Honestly at first this recipe was really daunting. But after having made the dough it's not as scary as it seems! If you're considering this recipe, keep reading! 1. The toffee? Probably my favorite part of this recipe ngl. I've never made something like it, I haven't even used a candy thermometer before. But it was so easy. Just stir, check the temp. I pulled it off the heat when the thermometer read 280 as opposed to 300, and poured it out. It was lighter and a little thicker than Alvin's. But I put it in the fridge for about an hour, and it turned out perfect. Seriously perfect. Dont just buy premade toffee. Dont skip the toffee. It is totally worth it. 2. Brown butter. I've never browned butter before. I was really worried about burning it, but you just gotta put it on medium heat, let it melt, and then just keep stirring. It might not be like a brown liquid, but rather a golden liquid with brown bits at the bottom. The smell reminded me of the toffee. I added two ice cubes and it was done! 3. The actual dough. Mixing all the dry ingredients together I noticed I accidentally put in baking powder instead of baking soda! I tried to fix it best I could, but if the baking is weird then it's my fault lol. Dont make my mistake. The dry ingredients smelled like espresso. I was a little worried as I dont really like the flavor of coffee, but once I added the butter and the vanilla all the flavors melded into just a great dough. Adding the chocolate and toffee (while snagging a few bites) the dough looked soooo good. Now it's in the fridge, resting while I must wait. So maybe I'll update this in 2-3 days when I bake them. Lol thanks for reading my rambling

@milkshook81054 жыл бұрын
OK UPDATE: lol so I actually baked these last Friday but forgot to update this SO. I decided not to shape them before I put them in the fridge, which was fine but it was very hard to scoop out the dough to form lol. It worked out fine. I decided to make them much smaller than what Alvin did (maybe like half size??) And baked them for about 15 minutes instead of 20. They came out really soft which is how I like my cookies, but over time they have gotten slightly more solid. They baked really well and were done. One this is I put like 12 cookies on the plate. At half the size they grew up a lot surprisingly. Some of them turned more into squares because they merged into each other. So if you want perfect circles you might wanna do like 6 per tray. They came out and looked gorgeous. The chocolate is going to be super melty (obviously) and they are gonna be just warm and gooey and perfect. That's the best time to eat them. Upon taste test, I can conclude that these are *THE MOST LUXURIOUS COOKIES I HAVE EVER EATEN*. I mean, wow. I was worried about the espresso but it adds such a nice flavor that compliments the chocolate and doesnt taste like coffee. The brown butter adds a really nice element to the flavor, it just really makes it taste...not carmelized, but just richer and more melt-in-your-mouth-y. The toffee softened in the oven, so it delivered a nice texture and wasnt too solid as to ruin the cookie feel. I used really big chunks in my cookies so I think chunks are up to you as it didnt ruin anything. One thing I would say is BE CAREFUL WITH THE SEA SALT. I added a little. Then though "eh that's not enough itll be too sweet" so I added more and it was super salty. I'd say go very little with the salt, or if you like sweet stuff maybe not even use it (although a little, once melted into the cookie a bit, tastes good). In conclusion these cookies were freaking delicious and I definitely recommend this. I made about 25 cookies by doing it about half the size as in the video, and they are still big cookies. I also ate a lot of the dough. This is one of the few recipes that I must say to spare the dough because the end result tastes better (which is usually not the case lol). Things that depend on your personal preference are chunk size, cookie size, and length of baking (soft vs crispy). The toffee and the brown butter are actually not as hard as they look! Just keep an eye on it and keep mixing! The smell and taste is totally worth it. After I've just written an essay for these cookies, I'm gonna go eat one now. Bye!

I made these 1 week ago and overall I (and everyone else that ate them) was a huge fan! A few unsolicited observations: 1. I made the cookies according to the recipe but only added half of the toffee and I was glad I did. I enjoy sweets as much as the next guy and I think the entire batch of toffee would have been too overwhelming in these sinful cookies. 2. I baked a cookie immediately, after 24 hours and after 48 hours. The biggest change I experienced with each interval was with the sweetness of the cookie. As time went on, flavors became much more balanced and the extreme sweetness seemed to subside. 3. I tried cookies fresh out of the oven and after they came to room temp. For me, the room temp cookies were more delicious, it was overall more cohesive and interesting cookie to eat. 4. I baked the chilled dough at 350F for 18-21 minutes to achieve a slightly crisp edge and chewy core. 5. I used a 1/3c measuring cup to portion the dough before chilling. These cookies were monster (and thats GREAT!). Will definitely make these again

I know this channel is no longer active, and that this video was uploaded years ago, but this is one of the rare moments where i feel the need to comment on a video. I never knew a cookie could bring me such joy. I think i might go insane from how good it tastes. The nuttiness from the browned butter and its smell is amazing. There was so much salt in the batter for a cookie i was skeptical at first, but it turned out to be great bc it makes it taste like salted caramel and the espresso adds so much depth to the batter. It tastes so much like salted caramel popcorn and i love those especially when its done well. I want to thank you for sharing this recipe to the world and i do not know who taught you how to bake but whoever they are, wherever they may be, i'm sure they're very proud of how far you've come :)

I'm writing down this recipe so you don't have to: (Ingredients are in the description of the vid) INGREDIENTS Toffee: 1 stick unsalted butter 1 cup light brown sugar 1 tsp kosher salt Brown Butter: 2 sticks unsalted butter 2 ice cubes Dough: 1/2 cup sugar 1 ½ cups dark brown sugar 2 tsp espresso powder 2 tsp kosher salt ½ tsp baking soda 2 eggs 2 tsp good vanilla extract 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour 6 oz chocolate, 70% cacao minimum Maldon sea salt METHOD: TOFFEE: 1. heat pan and add butter, brown sugar, and salt. stir till relatively combined. 2. once it reaches 300 F or 150 C it's done. (you'll need a thermometer for this as it must be somewhat exact) 3. take the pan off the heat and pour toffee into a parchment greased baking pan. 4. let harden in the freezer. DOUGH: 1. first combine brown and white sugars, salt, espresso, and baking soda. After combining set aside. 2. in a pan put the needed butter on medium heat until golden brown. the mixture will foam. 3. After taking the pan off heat add an ice cube and mix till melted. 4. add brown butter to the sugar mixture. mix until the butter is completely dissolved and it becomes a brown slop. 5. Next, add two eggs and vanilla extract (feel free to eyeball it). the mixture should be a smooth and lighter shade of brown after mixing is complete. 6. now incorporate the flour bit by bit till it goes from a crumbly scraggly consistency to a smooth golden one. set aside. 7. cut diagonally into the chocolate to create unique shapes. *TIME TO SMASH THE TOFFEE BOOIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSS* 8. Put shattered shards of toffee into a bag to mutilate even further with a rolling pin till they become chunks. 9. slowly add the chocolate and toffee chunks into the dough and take a bite if you really want to ( i know I do). 10. scoop the dough onto a parchmented (if that's even a word) pan and rest the dough for 48 FREAKING HOURS BECAUSE WHY THE HELL NOT *48 hours later* 11. heat oven to 150 C and 300 F and AGGRESSIVELY SHOVE the cookies into the oven for 20 minutes 12. sprinkle with Maldon salt at the end P.S.A just remember to space the cookies out evenly in the baking tray otherwise they would stick together and cause a disaster

I just made these cookies (with modifications) and they're so good! I followed the recipe except for the toffee (it's too sweet for me). Using a 1/4 c (or 4 tbsp) cookie scoop, I was able to get 20 cookies. They spread to 4" in diameter once baked. First I baked as instructed (300F for 20 mins) and these cookies were crisp most of the way through and chewy in the very center. I reduced the baking time to 15 minutes and got a more chewy cookie that still had a crisp edge (my preference). If anyone makes this, I recommend only baking the amount of cookies you'll eat that day. Even wrapped in plastic wrap and placed in tubberware, the cookies lose mositure and chewiness after a day. I'm freezing the extra dough balls so I can bake fresh cookies whenever I want! Also, make sure you portion out the dough before you chill it for 2 days! I chilled my dough before portioning it and it was a lot harder to scoop. Whoops!

My partner and I tried out this recipe - it is DELICIOUS. Although, when we first put in the listed 2 1/2 cups of flour, the batter was really runny... So we added in about 1 more cup of flour and it started to look like dough at that point. We baked the first tray at 300 for 20 minutes, they came out super flat and underbaked. It could be that our oven is maybe lower voltaged? Everybody's ovens are different. 2nd tray of cookies we baked at 325 for 15 mins, still a bit flat and underbaked, but we baked them for an extra 5 minutes and it helped. 3rd tray of cookies baked at the standard 350 for 12 to 15 minutes and they came out perfect. Good size and raised. This was definitely a fun recipe to test multiple baking temperatures and times!

The video is so appealing that I decided to try the recipe. I usually use the NYT recipe for choc chip cookies, but the brown butter approach for this type of cookie looked interesting . But there were quite a few strong flavors competing for attention and in the end I felt that the taste of the brown butter was masked by the coffee and chocolate chips. I also found them too sweet in spite the 2 teaspoons of salt. My NYT recipe calls for the same amount of butter and sugar, but close to 2x the flour. I followed the 48 hr rule, but I’ve made this type of cookie following a 24 hour refrigerated rest period and that produced very similar results. I used an ice cream scoop and got 20 cookies from this recipe. Finally, the 20 minute bake time at 300F wasn’t enough. My cookies took 30 minutes at that temp.

Tried this recipe and it turned out great! The toffee definitely helped elevate the taste of the cookies so if you’re thinking of skipping that please don’t (it’s also what makes the cookies unique) Tips: - use 3/4 or 1/2 of the toffee if you’re not a fan of sweets (i only used 3/4 of the toffee but the cookies were already borderline too sweet for me) - use dark chocolate (don’t substitute semi or bittersweet because the dark choc helps balance the sweetness) - make sure that you’re browned butter is cool let it rest for 10-15mins - i used light brown sugar instead of dark (feel like there’s not much of a difference there) Hope this helps!
@cakeheart.2 жыл бұрын
bit late, but if you have access to it, i would HIGHLY recommend using dark brown sugar instead of light. the increased molasses content in dark brown sugar adds more moisture to the cookie and allows for that soft center, and the white sugar balances it out so light brown sugar (less molasses) may reduce the overall softness of the center. dark brown sugar also has a stronger flavor and compliments brown butter PERFECTLY. either way - hope you enjoy!

Tips for anyone making these: I would highly recommended letting the brown butter cool for a couple minutes before adding the ice cubes, I didn't and mine *exploded*- Also, if you don't want to add expresso, a good twist on this recipe is rosemary chocolate chip cookies, where you very finely chop a palm full of fresh rosemary and add about a half teaspoon to the brown butter, and add the rest to the sugar before adding the brown butter to it. I personally would take out some of the toffee, might be just me but it seemed like a litte too much, maybe save some for a friend or different dessert. When making the toffee make sure you pour it into the pan not just in a big pile, but as you pour move the pan around in a small circle so that the toffee is easier to spread out, it will make more even pieces when it freezes instead of the middle being really thick. Have a good day/night, these cookies are amazing-

I made the recipe and these are my thoughts: I switched all the measurements into grams and I'm not sure if that was the problem, but the cookies didn't come out like this, they spread out a loooot and they became very thin and the batter was a lot oilier than i was expecting. I have now added more flour to see if that makes any difference. The flavour is amazing, even when they are thin, they become crispy and chewy which is also very good but not what i was expecting. So, i added more flour and put them in the fridge again and I'll bake them tomorrow to see if anything changes Edit: adding more flour didn't do anything even tho i added 100gr more. But after reading a lot of reviews i learnt that the melted butter should not be hot, let it cool down before using it! So that might have been my problem

I experienced the same problem :( My toffee also did not break as easily as his. My toffee is rather stretchy. Will try again soon

Same thing happened to my toffee but i didn't have a thermometer so it might have just been that i didn't let it cook all the way through. Good luck on your next try!

I would recommend you to refrigerate your brown butter, let the butter to have the consistency of a normal softened butter!

You probably didn’t cool the dough after making it, or if you did cool it, you didn’t do it long enough.

When I made these, i only browned 1/2 the butter, cooled it, then creamed that with the other 1/2 just softened. This cut down on the greasiness I usually see in B.B cookies and the flavor was still rich and toasty. I hadn't noticed before that he bakes at only 300*F so I ended up with a crispier texture than I wanted. Still ridiculously delicious, but I missed that chewy center. I'm gonna try the lower temp with a couple dough balls and see if that gets me there.

Just started the dough and waiting for the toffee to harden up. I wasn’t able to temp the toffee but it had that same bubbly outside crust and was able to keep a consistent light boil going until it got this almost dark amber color (I used dark brown sugar ) and I’m honestly so excited to try this recipe. Thank you for sharing it!!!
