Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until foam subsides and it turns deep golden brown with nutty aroma, ~6 minutes.
Step 3
Pour browned butter into a bowl. Stir in brown sugar and let cool 5 minutes until just warm to the touch.
Step 4
Whisk egg into the butter mixture until fully combined. Stir in flour and salt until no dry streaks remain.
Step 5
Fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough 2 inches apart onto both sheets.
Step 6
Bake for 11–13 minutes until edges are golden brown but centers still look slightly underbaked. Rotate sheets halfway through.
Step 7
Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
