- ¾ cup (140 g / 5 oz) lightly packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- Water, as needed

- 4 ice cubes
- ¾ cup (160 g / 5.5 oz) white granulated sugar
- 1½ cups (270 g / 9.5 oz) packed light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons espresso powder
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt

- Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
Procedure
[edit | edit source]- Line a baking sheet with baking parchment.
- Melt the butter, sugar and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Add water if necessary to keep fat from separating. Continue to cook until the temperature is 150°C (302°F) and when dropped in water it forms brittle threads.
- Pour the toffee onto the prepared baking pan. Freeze until ready to use, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, line another baking sheet with parchment.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan and cook until it turns dark brown. Remove from the heat.
- Add an ice cube to the butter and let it melt. Repeat with remaining ice cubes.
- Combine the sugars, espresso powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl.
- Pour the brown butter into the sugar mixture and beat until combined.
- Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
- Fold in the flour until combined.
- Remove the toffee from the freezer and break into chunks. Put into a zippable bag and break into bits using a rolling pin.
- Add the toffee and chocolate to the dough and fold in.
- Scoop the dough onto the baking sheet and let it chill for 48 hours for flavors to develop.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 163°C (325°F). Line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment.
- Arrange the cookies on the baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between each other.
- Bake for 18–20 minutes until golden brown.
- Take the cookies out of the oven and sprinkle with a little sea salt before leaving them to cool.
