Thick, buttery-soft, and generously portioned, these bakery style cookies are infused with a faint hint of warm bourbon. These browned butter and bourbon cookies are a deliciously unique twist on the classic chocolate chip cookie.

3 sticks (345 g) unsalted sweet cream butter
1¾ cup (350 g) light brown sugar, packed
½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
3 Tbsp (45 ml) bourbon
2 tsp (10 ml) pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs + 1 egg yolk
4 cups (500 g) all-purpose flour
2 tsp (8.5 g) cornstarch
1½ tsp (6 g) baking soda
¾ tsp (3 g) salt
2½ cups (425 g) chocolate chips/chunks (I used a combination of half mini chips and half chopped premium dark chocolate)

Place the butter in a saucepan and melt over low heat. Increase heat to medium (do not leave your butter or it will burn) and swirl occasionally as the butter snaps and crackles. Let the butter snap and pop...
