Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter (browned)
- 2/3 cup (135g) dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg + 1 large egg yolk (room temperature)
- 1 & 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 & 1/4 cups (160g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/3 cup (55g) chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup (40g) toffee (chopped)
- 1/3 cup (35g) mini pretzels (crushed)
Instructions
- Add butter to large saucepan over medium heat. Butter will begin to foam and then brown quickly. Stir constantly during entire process. Once butter begins to brown, remove from heat and pour into a mixing bowl. Mix in dark brown sugar and granulated sugar and set aside to cool for about 10 minutes.
- Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
- Add flour, salt, and baking soda and mix until just combined. There should still be some streaks of flour visible.
- Stir in chocolate chips, toffee, and pretzels. Be careful not to overmix. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out 12 cookies using a #20 (3 tablespoon) cookie scoop. Add a piece of toffee and pretzel on top of each cookie dough ball. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes. Sprinkle with a small amount of flaky sea salt. Allow to cool before serving.
