Viewed: 28 - Published at: 3 years agoIngredients
- 1-1/2 stick Butter
- 2 cups All-purpose Flour
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoons Nutmeg
- 1-1/2 cup Dark Brown Sugar
- 1 whole Egg
- 1 whole Egg Yolk
- 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Salted Caramel Baking Chips
- 1/2 cups Salted Cashews, Roughly Chopped
Method
- First, turn the butter into liquid gold (I mean brown butter). Put the butter in a medium sauce pan and heat it over medium heat. Let it gently bubble and cook until it becomes golden brown and smells nutty. Then set it aside to cool a bit.
- While butter cools, whisk flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg in a bowl for the dry ingredients. Then set up a stand mixer with the paddle attachment. Combine brown sugar and cooled brown butter in the bowl and beat thoroughly. Add egg and egg yolk, followed by vanilla. Finally, turn speed to low and slowly add dry ingredients until you have a lovely dough. Switch to a spatula and thoroughly fold in salted caramel chips and cashews. Let dough chill and set in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- When the 30 minutes is up, line two baking sheets with silicone mats and preheat oven to 325°F. Use a 1 1/2-inch cookie scoop to scoop perfect little mounds of dough right onto the sheet trays, fitting 15 on each sheet. These cookies don't spread much at all, so fitting 15 is easy. This recipe makes 45 total, so bake the first two trays for 20 minutes and let them cool a bit before you transfer them to a cooling rack. Then repeat the process scooping out the remaining dough onto one of the trays and baking it for 20 minutes. Move them to a cooling rack after a few minutes.
- Seal in containers for a great treat or snack! They keep for a week or so.
