Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of luscious butter
- A generous measure of 1 cup of tightly packed light brown sugar
- A splash of 2 tablespoons of aromatic bourbon whiskey
- A single large egg
- A hint of 1 teaspoon of fragrant vanilla extract
- A portion of 1 cup of versatile all-purpose flour
- A pinch of 1/2 teaspoon of salt
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare your 8-inch square baking dish by lining it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a saucepan over medium heat, gently melt the butter until it transforms into a beautiful brown hue and releases a delightful nutty aroma. This process takes about 5 minutes, so keep an eye on it to prevent burning. Transfer the brown butter into a spacious bowl and allow it to cool slightly.
Step 3
Next, combine the brown sugar with the fragrant browned butter and a splash of bourbon for an extra kick. Introduce the egg and vanilla extract into the mix, stirring until everything harmoniously blends together. Gradually add the flour and a pinch of salt, stirring until a smooth batter forms. Pour this luscious concoction into your prepared baking dish.
Step 4
Slide the dish into the preheated oven and let it bake until the top surface is dry and the edges gracefully pull away from the sides, usually around 20 to 25 minutes. Once done, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. For best results, allow it to cool completely before slicing into delectable pieces.
