Malted Dark Chocolate Chip Toffee Cookies
Brown butter, malted brown sugar cookie dough is filled with milk, semisweet, and chopped dark chocolate, and toffee bits in this incredible chocolate chip cookie.
Ingredients
- 2 sticks brown butter
- 2½ cups flour
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp malt powder
- 1 tspn baking soda
- 1 tspn baking powder
- 1½ tspn salt
- 3.4 ounce bar of dark chocolate roughly chopped
- ½ cup semisweet chips
- ½ cup milk chocolate chips
- ½ cup toffee bits
Instructions
- In a bowl of a stand mixer, cream brown butter and sugars until light in color.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Add vanilla and salt and continue to mix in on low. Scrape down the bowl before adding dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl sift all of the dry ingredients then add to the butter mixture on low. Mix until just combined, do not overmix.
- Chop dark chocolate into roughly one inch pieces and add to the dough along with the other chocolate chips and toffee bits. Mix for a few turn on low until the chocolate is mixed in.
- Remove bowl from mixer and use a spatula to make sure the bottom of the bowl is mixed well and the chocolate is evenly distributed.
- Using a 3-ounce cookie scoop, portion out 18 pieces of cookie dough onto a parchment lined baking tray.
- Refrigerate dough overnight to allow the flavors to develop and the flour to rest.
- Preheat oven to 375* and bake 6-8 cookies per tray at a time for 9-12 minutes. Look for golden brown tops and sides.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle generously with sea salt as they cool. Transfer cookies to wire rack after 5 minutes to continue cooling.
- Enjoy!
Notes
One of the most delicious chocolate chip cookies I make, the combination of toffee, chocolate and malt flavors will blow your mind. These cookies keep well in a covered container on the counter for up to a week, but I doubt they will last that long. You can also freeze the dough for up to 6 months and bake these fresh whenever the craving hits.
