Brown Butter Cookies

from Gourmet, Dec. 2005

2 sticks butter

3/4 C. sugar

2 tsp vanilla

2 C. AP flour

1 tsp. b. soda

1/8 tsp salt

Brown butter moderately dark, shock pan to stop process. Cool in ice water about 4 minutes; add sugar and vanilla.

Whisk dry ingredients together in bowl, add butter mixture gently. Shape into ball, wrap in plastic, let stand at room temp 1-2 hours to develop flavor.

Form cookies by shaping them in a teaspoon; mixture will be crumbly. Flatten top while it's in the spoon, then slide out, flat side down. Bake until just pale golden, 8-15 minutes in a 325 degree oven. Transfer after 5 minutes, cool completely.

Can be filled with preserves, chocolate.
