OMG is that a slutty brownie SUNDAE? I am sad I didn't think of that when I made them (honestly they were a bit of a disappointment to me on their own - I need to make the cookie dough from scratch I think).
Always make the cookie dough from scratch-- that way you can use brown butter.
Not that I've ever made slutty brownies, I just assume they'd be better with brown butter.
I am glad to see that someone else uses brown butter in their chocolate chip cookies - people at work think I am crazy when I say I do that - but I got the idea from America's test Kitchen so how can it be crazy? And everyone thinks they taste great. They just think I am making it up.
See I never tell anyone that I do it. I just let it be that thing that makes my cookies awesome that no one can ever put their finger on.
Oh I like that idea better - I don't even like most of the people I work with so I don't know why I feel the need to tell them my secret (again, not that they believe what I am saying). I think that one of the tech's girlfriends (who is a pastry chef) uses that trick because her cookies have that same extra yummy quality, and she is a pastry chef so she would know what to do. But I like that tech so it is ok that she does that.
Oh, and back on topic - I just eat some sugar - cupcakes today (still on the fence but may have a bit of ice cream too).0 -

what's brown butter? I'm honestly just thinking literal poop.
:laugh:
No no. I would say it's what it sounds like except clearly what it sounds like to you is much different than what it sounds like to me. You just take your butter and cook it over medium heat until it starts to brown and smell nutty. Then you take it off, add an ice cube (puts back in the moisture you lost), stick it in the fridge until it starts to harden back up, and use it in recipes as needed. It gives the cookies a toffee undertone.
ooooh never heard of that! Amaaazing.0 -
There is a recipe for slutty brownies (I have heard so many reasons they are called that but I like to think it is because they are so easy) called even sluttier brownies that has a layer of caramel in there between the oreos and the brownie part.0

Under 50 cals for a little pop of ice cream. Scratches an itch when you don't have many cals to play with0 -
