Browning Your Butter
Place your butter in a pan set over medium heat. Toast your butter while stirring constantly. Once your butter is a golden brown color with a nutty aroma, it is done.

Mixing Your Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Add the egg, egg yolk and vanilla and whisk until well combined.

Making Your Dough
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix with a spatula. Your dough should be smooth and evenly incorporated with no lumps. Add the chocolate chips and mix until they are evenly distributed. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
