Chewy chocolate chunk cookies made with nutty brown butter and a touch of white miso for deep, rich flavor and the perfect sweet and savory balance.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (226 grams) unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup (150 grams) light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons (30 grams) white miso paste
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups (280 grams) all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 1/2 cups (255 grams) dark chocolate chunks

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan, brown the butter over medium heat until golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together browned butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  4. Add white miso paste, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  7. Stir in dark chocolate chunks evenly throughout the dough.
  8. Scoop dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden and centers remain slightly soft.
  10. Allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes for thicker cookies.
  • Do not overbake, the centers should look slightly underdone.
  • Use high quality chocolate for best flavor and texture.
