Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon espresso powder
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup Heath toffee bits with chocolate
  • Flaked sea salt for topping

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until golden brown and fragrant. Stir constantly to avoid burning. Transfer to a bowl and mix in espresso powder. Refrigerate until firm (1-2 hours).
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Beat the cooled brown butter with both sugars in a stand mixer until light and fluffy (3-4 minutes). Add the egg and vanilla; mix until smooth.
  4. Gradually incorporate baking powder, baking soda, salt, and flour until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the toffee bits.
  6. Chill dough for at least an hour before scooping onto prepared baking sheets, sprinkle with sea salt, and bake for 11-13 minutes or until edges are golden.
