Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tablespoon milk
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 package Nestle Tollhouse Caramel Filled Morsels

Instructions

  • In a saucepan over medium heat melt the butter.
  • Once the butter is melted, it will begin to foam.
  • Continue to heat the butter until the foam subsides, and brown specks form on the bottom of the pan.

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl with an electric mixer, combine the cooled brown butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Cream together until well blended, about 1 minutes.
  • Mix in the egg, egg yolk, milk and vanilla until well combined.
  • In separate bowl combine the flour, baking soda, and salt and then add to butter mixture.
  • Mix until well combined.
  • Using a spatula fold in chocolate chips.
  • Scoop 2 tablespoon balls of dough onto a cookie sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until just golden along the edges.
  • Be careful not to over bake.
  • Remove from oven, and allow to cool for 5 minutes then transfer cookies to cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy!
