Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until it turns golden brown, about 5–7 minutes.
  3. Mix the cooled browned butter with the sugars, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and eggs in a stand mixer for 3 minutes.
  4. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl, then gradually mix this into the wet ingredients.
  5. Fold in the dark chocolate chips evenly into the cookie dough.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
  7. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to enhance flavors and maintain shape.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes until edges are set but centers are soft.
  9. Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
