Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by melting unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously for about 5-7 minutes until the butter transforms into a golden brown color and emits a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and mix in espresso powder for a delightful coffee kick. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let it chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours, until firm.
- Once your brown butter is chilled, beat it together with granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer. Mix on medium speed for 3-4 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Next, blend in a large egg and vanilla extract into your sugar mixture. Continue mixing on low speed until smooth and fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Gently fold in the Heath toffee bits using a spatula, ensuring that they're evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop the cookie dough into large balls using a cookie scoop, placing them onto a tray lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate the dough balls for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while the dough chills. Once ready, arrange the chilled cookie dough balls on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 11-13 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown.
- After baking, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Then, carefully transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Perfect browning is key for rich flavor. Chilling the dough enhances texture and flavor. Use quality toffee for the best taste.
