I was so nervous about browning butter for the first time with just enough left in the fridge for one try, and your tutorial made it super easy! No need to run back to the store!!
this is literally the EASIEST video to follow!! I've made browned butter using your technique twice now and it has turned out perfectly each time & just levels up my chocolate chip cookies and other recipes! thanks so much for making the video so detailed, thorough, and easy to follow!!!
I absolutely love your channel. I watched a few other videos on how to brown butter and came upon yours. Your video IMO is by far, hands down, the best tutorial for newbies to browning butter as it is very through and shows what the butter should look like at each stage. I did this today for a cinnamon rolls recipe that uses brown butter cream cheese frosting. Kudos and thank you for making this video. You removed my fear of browning butter.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad it was helpful and I'm glad you enjoyed the video. My goal really is to remove the fear from baking so you can really enjoy great desserts. Mission accomplished. ☺️
Tried this today for a cookie recipe (one of yours) and this video was very helpful! To note, I did see another video from a different channel that suggested pouring the browned butter into a heat-proof measuring cup and then adding water to get the volume back to what the original recipe calls for. I kind of met in the middle and used a half-tablespoon of extra butter prior to browning and then just needed a little bit of water to hit the mark I needed for the recipe. It smells amazing, can't wait to try out the cookies! Thank you, again!
Thank you so much. I tried browning butter for the first time the other day and panicked (and stopped) when it really started bubbling. I thought I had messed up the process somehow! Now I know I was headed in the right direction but quit too soon. 😜 Headed to the kitchen now to have another go at it!!
Thank you so much! I tried this for the first time after a recipe called for it and I wasn’t 100% sure, so I watched your video and it was perfect first go! Amazing!!!
Thank you! I started cooking my butter when I realized I really didn't know what I was doing. 😅 I turned on and watched the instructional part of your video while I was whisking and it turned out perfectly! ♥️ Thank you!!
Thank you, Sam. I was thinking about trying browned butter in your "Worst Chocolate Chip Cookie" recipe next time. That recipe calls for 1 cup of butter. Should I perhaps start with an extra Tablespoon (or more?) of butter prior to browning to compensate for the water loss?
It will solidify in the refrigerator and it really depends on the recipe. I have some cookies that use brown butter in them. You have to be careful about just using it anywhere because you cook out some of the moisture and that can mess with some recipes. 😊
This video is so helpful! I have a question though, can I measure out my flour while the butter cools? Or will the butter harden while it cools? Thank you!
If I use browned butter instead of regular butter in a recipe, do I measure by the amount of buttery I originally cooked? Or should I measure out the brown butter?
It really depends on the recipe. If the recipe doesn’t call for brown butter there’s a chance you may need to brown slightly more than what the recipe calls for but again it really depends on the recipe
Butter has 15-18% content of water. Check the % of water of the butter you are going to brown, and add that amount as water to the recipe you are going to make.
@@jasminericcardi How do you check the amount of water and do you add water back into it if you're making cookies I'm having such a hard time finding the accurate answer to this question
@@barbra429 On the paper of your butter it's specified the % of fat. The rest is water. In Italy we use grams, so our butter is 83% of fat for 100g grams of butter, the rest, 17% or 17grams, is water. If you are using cups as a measure, you can brown a bigger quantity of the butter the recipe is calling for, and then pour it in a cup(if you have metal cups) Roughly, to get 1 cup of brown butter, you should cook 1 cup + 4-5 tbsp.
You have to be careful about just using it in any recipe because you are cooking out some of the liquid from the butter that could be vital to the way the cookies turn out. 😊
@@SugarSpunRun Hi Thanks for your reply 😊 I made some Anzac Biscuits earlier,and first batch of butter had black bits in it,so i slung it and tried again and this time much better,golden brown bits in which is how i left it at to make the Anzac Biscuits.
Thanks! My recipe called for this but it helps to see what it's meant to look like :)

Great video - didn’t know what brown butter was until someone showed me this video - thanks!
You're welcome! You are going to be browning butter all the time now. :)
Great point about the non-dark bottom pan!
Brown butter on burnt toast is amazing!!!

I haven’t tried the adding the water. I’m not sure how it would work. It would really depend on the recipe but I’m glad you enjoyed the video. 😊
I've been searching for a definite accurate answer on this I still haven't figured it out
Would you mind sharing the video that you are referenceing
@@barbra429 After numerous attempts at browning butter, I've found that using an extra Tablespoon of butter works best.
@@elgiacomo So you add an extra tablespoon in addition to the brown butter, or are you saying you use an extra tablespoon with regular butter?
Thank you so much. I tried browning butter for the first time the other day and panicked (and stopped) when it really started bubbling. I thought I had messed up the process somehow! Now I know I was headed in the right direction but quit too soon. 😜 Headed to the kitchen now to have another go at it!!
It's definitely scary at first, but so worth it!! :)
Found this video when trying to figure out the right way to brown sugar for making chocolate chip cookies. This worked like a charm, thank you!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Brown butter makes succchhhhh a difference in baked goods. 😊😊
@@SugarSpunRun the suggestion to keep our eyes on it and and keep stirring was a good lesson for my kids who are getting into baking.

I'm making tasties ultimate chocolate chip cookies. Your guide to browning butter was very helpful. thank you
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Have you checked out my worst chocolate chip cookies? I bet they beat tasty any day. 😉

That's awesome! I"m glad it helped. :)
Made brown butter for the first time and absolutely loved your tutorial. It gave me the courage to make it 😂
Awesome! Thanks for watching 😊
Brown butter Rocks! Thank you
The best! You're very welcome 🙂
Great tips. Thank you 🤓
You’re welcome! 😊
Thank you, that was very helpful ^^

I have not tried it, but I know others have with success, without adding any extra butter. I would probably just add an extra tablespoon to start. 😊😊
Can u freeze it for future use? I am going to try this today for peanut butter cookies.
I haven't tried it but I think that should work perfectly fine. :)
Awesome! Thanks.
You're welcome!
Hey, thanks . Will this solidify if kept in fridge ? And can be used in cakes/ cookies ?

Can I put the browned butter in my freezer??,The recipe for my cookies need softened butter and not melted but I want it to be brown
It will solidify at room temperature after a while. It just takes a little while. 😊
Can you use brown butter instead of regular butter in a chocolate chip cookie recipe
It really depends on the recipe.
@@SugarSpunRun Can you please elaborate on this
Do you have to make adjustments when baking cookies because of the water loss from the butter
how long did it take to brown it?
It takes about 5-10 minutes depending on the heat of your stovetop. :)
Mmm 😋
Can I use this in any cookie recipe?
You have to be careful about just using it in any recipe because you are cooking out some of the liquid from the butter that could be vital to the way the cookies turn out. 😊
If you put it into the fridge to harden
This is a question that I can't find a definite answer on
Can you use cream brown butter?
I burnt my spatula
what about salted butter?
You can use it.
Perfect! Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Next up, clarified butter?
Just cook the brown butter a little less time. 😉
Aren't you meant to sieve out the black bits?
No, those bits are the sole reason for browning butter.
Well they shouldn’t be black. If they turn black you’ve gone too far but you do want the brown bits in the butter. That is all the flavor
@@SugarSpunRun Hi Thanks for your reply 😊 I made some Anzac Biscuits earlier,and first batch of butter had black bits in it,so i slung it and tried again and this time much better,golden brown bits in which is how i left it at to make the Anzac Biscuits.
My rubber spatula literally melted into it
Oh no! 😔
Mmm 😋
