Instructions

Creating Brown Butter Corn Cookies is straightforward if you follow these easy steps:

  1. Brown the Butter: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, stirring frequently until it turns golden brown and gives off a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  1. Mix Sugars: In a mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Pour the browned butter over the sugars and mix well until combined.
  1. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, ensuring everything is creamy.
  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking soda, and salt.
  1. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
  1. Fold in Corn: Gently fold in the corn kernels, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  1. Chill the Dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to an hour, allowing the flavors to meld and firm up.
  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  1. Scoop Cookies: Use a cookie scoop to portion out dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  1. Sprinkle with Sea Salt: If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each cookie for added flavor.
  1. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look set.
  1. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
