Over the holiday season last year when looking for new recipes to bake, my cousin introduced me to brown butter cookies. At the smell alone I was in love, and things only got better with taste.

Shortly after, I began recipe testing and found that the combination of browned butter and pecans was a new found favourite. The browned butter adds a caramel-like taste to this simple recipe, giving it so much more depth. Pairing it with pecans gives these cookies the perfect crunch!

For those unfamiliar with browned butter or how to make it, here is a post with a super helpful video.
