because sometimes you need to watch a bad rom-com and bake cookies
- 1½cups (200 g) all-purpose flour
- just a sprinkle of kosher salt… or however much pours into your hand when you’re trying to get a teaspoon ish but you feel guilty about wasting food so you just put it all in anyways
- ¾tsp. (4 g) baking soda
- ¾cup unsalted butter, divided
- 1cup (200 g) (packed) dark brown sugar
- ¼cup (50 g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg / 1 egg yolk
- vanilla extract / splash almond extract
- bittersweet chocolate chips
- preheat over to 375 although lets be honest this will be the last step because preheating this early seems whack and you gotta chill the cookie dough for a second anyways so…
- mix dry ingredients in one bowl
- melt 1/2 cup butter in sauce pan or whatever pan that Haley actually cleaned and put away… do this over medium heat until the butter foams and browns … or until it looks kinda weird and separated but you have to say f**k it and put the sugar in after 7 or so minutes??
- add brown and white sugar and remaining butter
- take off of heat and cool for a second (approximately 1 minute because i am impatient)
- add in eggs and hope to god you don’t get scrambled eggs in your cookie batter bc the butter/sugar mixture is too hot (*likely why the butter and sugar need to cool for longer than 1 minute)
- bloop in vanilla and almond extract
- pour in dry ingredients and whisk (ok actually use a whisk bc the wooden spoon did not cut it
) - add in chocolate chips that you found in back of baking cupboard thank GOD
- put mixture in fridge and ACTUALLY go to preheat oven…
- bake for 8 ish minutes? and/or however long it takes to finish the glass of wine you were drinking and kinda sorta forgot when you actually put the cookies in the oven
- give said cookies to housemate
