Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup butter divided
  • 2.25 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 cup light brown sugar
  • 0.33 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1.5 cups bittersweet chocolate coarsely chopped
  • 0.75 cup toffee bits
  • flaky salt for sprinkling

Equipment

  • Medium Saucepan
  • Stand mixer
  • cookie scoop
  • parchment paper
  • cookie sheets

Method
 

  1. Place ½ of the butter into a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until deep golden brown, about 5-7 minutes, then cool.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, instant espresso, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a stand mixer, cream remaining butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  4. Beat in vanilla and cooled brown butter until light and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  5. Beat in the egg and egg yolk for another minute.
  6. On low speed, add the flour mixture, beating just until incorporated.
  7. Remove the bowl and give the dough one final stir to incorporate the flour. Fold in chocolate and toffee.
  8. Scoop dough onto lined cookie sheets and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  10. Sprinkle dough scoops with flaky salt. Bake for 14-16 minutes until edges are golden and centers set.
  11. Let cookies cool for 10 minutes on parchment before transferring them to a cooling rack.
