- 8g table salt (1t)
- 560g granulated sugar
- 34g molasses

- Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
- Blend sugar with molasses using a pastry blender until homogeneous and declumped.
- In an appropriate stand type mixer, mix sugar-molasses, eggs, vanilla extract, beating on medium-high until thick ribbons fall from the whisk when lifted, perhaps 5 minutes.
- Test temperature of brown butter mixture, proceed only when it has dropped to less than 130F. Can use refrigerator to accelerate.
- Add flour mixture and mix on medium speed only until incorporated.
- Add chocolate chips and mix on low speed only until incorporated
- Transfer dough to an airtight storage container and refrigerate overnight.
- After overnight refrigeration, cut dough into 32 equal cubes, roll into balls. Freeze these for future use or bake immediately.

Scott McNeill's Recipe, With Butter
Ingredients
- 2 sticks unsalted butter (a nice Irish butter is good here)
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1½ cups brown sugar (dark or light, I prefer dark)
- 2 eggs
- 11 ½ ounces AP flour (by weight, about 2 ¼ cups by volume)
- 1 Tbsp kosher salt (this is a lot, start with 1 tsp and adjust to your taste)
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¾ tsp cinnamon (also a lot, maybe start with ¼ tsp)
- Chocolate chips (a whole 12 oz bag is not unwelcomed, choose your favorite)
- Nuts (walnuts or your favorite, optional)
- Flaky sea salt
Procedure
- Start by browning 2 sticks of unsalted butter over medium heat. Once browned, place in a measuring cup and refrigerate for 1 hour or until it’s re-solidified.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the butter along with ½ cup of white sugar and 1 ½ cups of brown sugar. Mix well to combine.
- Next add 2 cold eggs to the mixture and mix to combine.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 11 ½ ounces of all-purpose flour, 1 tsp of kosher salt, ½ tsp of baking soda, and ¼ tsp of cinnamon.
- Add half of dry ingredients to the stand mixer, mix to combine, and then add the other half of the dry ingredients. Don’t over mix.
- Add your chocolate chips, stir just until everything is well combined and remove dough from mixer. Place in a bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour or as long as 2 days.
- Optional: You can toast some nuts and add those to your cookie dough as well.
- Roll your cookie dough into balls and then break in half and set on cookie sheet. This will help give the cookies a rustic look. Bake in a 350°F oven for 12-17 minutes or until they’ve reached your preferred doneness. Top with a little bit of sea salt.
- Remove to a wire rack to cool.
