# How to Make:
01 - Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, swirling frequently, until foaming and deep golden with browned bits, approximately 5–7 minutes. Transfer immediately to a large mixing bowl and let cool for 10 minutes.
02 - Whisk brown sugar, granulated sugar, and white miso paste into the cooled browned butter until smooth and fully incorporated.
03 - Add eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture; whisk thoroughly until glossy and slightly thickened.
04 - In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and sea salt. Gradually fold these dry ingredients into the wet mixture with a spatula until just combined.
05 - Fold chocolate chips or chunks into the dough evenly.
06 - Cover dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight for enhanced flavor and texture.
07 - Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
08 - Scoop dough into 2-tablespoon balls and place them 2 inches apart on prepared sheets.
09 - Bake for 11–13 minutes until edges turn golden and centers are just set.
10 - Immediately sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired. Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
