Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, browned and slightly cooled

  • 0.33 cup yellow cornmeal (medium grind)
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Brown the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until golden and nutty, about 5–7 minutes. Let cool slightly.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
  • Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are set but slightly soft.
  • Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
