Brown Butter Toffee Chocolate Wafer Cookies

 If you like toffee and dark chocolate, you will like these delicious cookies.

Browned Butter Toffee Chocolate Wafer Cookies

1 cup butter
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/4 oz. chocolate toffee bars like Skor, chopped into 1/4 inch pieces
1 1/2 cups dark chocolate wafers (disks)

Cook butter in medium saucepan over medium heat.  Stir often.  Eventually, it will brown.  Brown bits will come up from the bottom.  It takes awhile.  Pour into your electric mixer bowl and let it cool for about 10 minutes.
While it's cooling, in another bowl mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt.  Add the sugars to the browned butter and beat well.  Add eggs and vanilla and beat on medium high speat until the mixture lightens and begins to thicken, about a minute.  Add the dry ingredients and beat on low until combined.  With a spoon, mix in the toffee pieces and chocolate wafers.  Let the dough sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375.  Roll balls of dough- about the size of a ping pong ball- and place on a parchment- lined cookie sheet.  Bake about 9-11 minutes.  Let sit on tray for about 10 minutes, then transfer to wire rack.
