Something similar happened to me when making pancakes. I've been using a mix recommened by a Cooks taste test. (Hungry Jack Buttermilk Complete). All you add is water. (I add vanilla extract to the water for more interesting flavor.) I've always used cool tap water until one day when I decided to use very warm water I had left on the stove from boiling water for tea. The pancakes didn't rise as much as usual. I never used warm water again and I never had that problem repeated. I'm looking forward to making this cookie recipe with the browned butter but I'm going to let the butter cool off before I add the flour and baking soda.

The pictures make the recipe even better. It guides me as I prepared to make this classic cookie. It was a recipe I would never be able to mess up, so thanks!

Also they recommend making sure your baking soda is fresh as this really helps the cookie rise correctly. i find that browning butter saves me time than mixxing it, while the butter is browning I get the other ingriedents measure and while the butter is carmelizing the sugar I watch tv or check email. So it saves me alot of time. And btw I do use my mixer with this recipe, as long as you don't overmix the end result dough, it still works very well!

They came out exactly what I expected to be. It was really simple to follow and the smell of the browned butter was sooooo amazing! However, the crispy edges were not what I was looking for. I hope the cookies were rather soft than chewy. But it was worth making it! This was awsome!!! They came out exactly what I expected to be.

It really is easier to do this recipe without a mixer - and melting the butter is not a huge step and is totally worth it in the end. I also make my cookies a bit smaller than the recipe calls for and they still come out great. I have been made this recipe several times and everyone says they are the best they’ve had.
