Browned Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

I'm not doing too well with posting. I made these cookies Christmas morning and at 9:00 that evening lost my electricity for almost 5 days!

Browned butter is a very popular thing to put in baked goods these days (hopefully it's still a popular thing). I'd been wanting to try some chocolate chip cookies with browned butter and the butter really does add another flavor to the cookies. Let's just say that it was a good thing I only made a half batch of these. ;)

The browned butter and sugars in the bowl.

I found these fun marshmallow bits in a store close to my hometown and couldn't resist adding some to my cookies.

 Oh yum! How hard it was to not just stop here and start eating this right out of the bowl. But I didn't.....

 Love how the marshmallows added a bit color to the cookies.

Since I just used the recipe from the back of a chocolate chip cookie bag - I won't put it here. But all you have to do is to use your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe and brown the amount of butter called for. If it calls for 1 cup butter, then just brown that same amount. It's best to let the butter harden back up before using it.
Here are two very good tutorials on how to brown butter - http://www.sweethopecookies.com and http://www.howsweeteats.com/2012/10/.
