Instructions
COOKIES
- Melt the butter in the microwave or in a small saucepan over low-medium heat. You don’t want it to bubble, so as to not lose any of the liquid in the butter. Pour the melted butter into a big mixing bowl and let it cool down to room temperature in the fridge. Takes about 20 minutes.110 g butter
- Once the butter has reached room temperature add the granulated sugar and brown sugar and with spatula whisk it together for 1 minute. Alternatively, mix it together in a stand mixer using the paddle attachment.100 g granulated sugar, 100 g dark brown sugar

- Using a 2 tbsp/ 1.3 ounce cookie scoop, scoop out 11 cookies and place them on a tray lined with baking paper. Then roll them between your hands into a ball. Place the prepared cookies in the fridge to set for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven at 180ºC / 355ºF and prepare a baking sheet with baking paper. Place 6 cookies per baking tray and bake one tray at a time for 10-11 minutes.
- Once baked, let them cool down on the baking tray for 3 minutes as they still will be soft when they are done. After they have cooled down a bit, use a spatula to lift them onto a cooling rack and let them cool down completely.
