Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup toffee bits
  • Flaky sea salt, for topping

Instructions

  • In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and continue cooking until it turns golden brown and smells nutty. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and sea salt.
  • Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and toffee bits.
  • Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
  • Top with extra chocolate chips and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt if desired.
  • Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are golden and the centers still look slightly soft.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Chill the dough for 30 minutes for thicker bakery-style cookies.Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.Brown butter should cool slightly before mixing to prevent greasy dough.Slightly underbaking keeps the centers soft and chewy.Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top for a sweet and salty finish.
