I am so excited about this Browned Butter Salted Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe that I have been wanting to share it with you for SO LONG now.
How have I never made a cookie recipe with corn syrup before??? It is seriously a game changer and creates the MOST soft and forever chewy cookies. I left them on the counter for 2 days straight (as an experiment) and they were STILL just as chewy the 2nd day as they were the first day.
I made this recipe three times already this week, so this is DEFINITELY my new favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe!
Having just moved to the States, I am learning all sorts of things about American cuisine.
Like how there is such thing as “Southern food” and how it is the most comforting, delicious food I have come across.
Someone in my work brought in a pecan pie: something that is not all that popular in Canada, and I think I cried a little. It was so good, I asked for the recipe immediately.
Looking at the ingredients list, I saw that corn syrup was one of the main ingredients.
Now, of course I have baked with corn syrup before. My favorite Corn Flake Bars and my Gooey Cinnamon Squares use corn syrup. But I have never known how versatile this stuff actually is until now!
Currently adding Karo® Corn Syrup to my shopping list from now until the end of time.
I found Karo® Corn Syrup at my local grocery store.
This brand has been around for over 100 years and has been trusted for generations. Why have more options when you already have a good thing going? To be honest, I have been using this brand for a while, after having a very bad experience with a generic brand.

But if you wanted a collection of recipes, Karo® Corn Syrup has made it easy for you! Just go to their website and check out all of their recipes using their product.

I am not lying when I tell you that this is my new favourite cookie recipe of all time.
I am going to compare all my future cookie recipes to these Chewy Browned Butter Salted Chocolate Chip Cookies.
The benchmark cookie.
Now if you will excuse me, I am off to make another batch.

These do look really good! I’m in the UK so will have to see if I can get corn syrup in the supermarket! 🙂
Oh darn! Next time you are in North America, you should stock up 😉
I never get the chewiness right, so will definitely be trying these! Love anything salty-sweet!
It makes the cookies oh so chewy!! Thanks Jacqui 🙂
They look SO chewy and delicious! Karo Corn Syrup (any corn syrup really) is super expensive in Norway, so I’ve never bought it, I’ve always used glucose syrup instead. I would love to try it someday, especially in these cookies!
Oh no way!! If you ever come and visit the US you should definitely get some!!
Soft and chewy cookies are my favorite. I can’t wait to try these!
They are so good!!
Cathleen, these chocolate chip cookies look like they have the best texture! I never thought to add corn syrup to cookies this this. Great idea! I’ll have to try it some time!
It is such a good addition to cookies!!
They look amazing, Cathleen, and we definitely have corn syrup in Australia – so I will give them a go!
I hope you do! It is so good 🙂
I really want to try brown butter for cookies. Yours look doable. I will be trying it soon.
Browned butter is SO good in cookies. Let me know if you give it a go!
Chocolate chip cookies are the best! And you’ve taken them to a whole ‘nother level in this recipe. Really good stuff — thanks.
Thanks John. I am addicted to these!!
I adore browned butter cookies and these look so delicious! I would gobble up that whole stack with a big glass of milk!
It’s so good, right? So hard to stop at one 😉
mmmm, those cookies look so delicious. Loving that soft chocolate chips in between, perfect with some dark coffee.
Yes!! It pairs perfectly 🙂
These were just the best chewy cookies ever!
My kids loved them so much I had to eat all the rest of them, to avoid fights over the last one 😉
Yay! I am so glad you and your kids liked it!! 🙂
