Instructions

Step 1

Start with making the brown butter. Heat butter in a saucepan on medium heat, first it will melt then it will foam. Continue stirring for the next 5-8 minutes. You'll know it's ready when the bits on the bottom of the pan become golden brown and a nutty aroma has filled the room. Transfer into a glass cup and allow to cool to room temperature.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together cooled brown butter and brown sugar for 2 minutes. Add in egg and vanilla and continue whisking until smooth.
