Servings 2 baking sheets

Equipment

  • Small microwave-safe bowl
  • Two medium-size bowls
  • Hand mixer
  • Small saucepan
  • Mixing spoon
  • Two baking sheets

Ingredients
  

  • 1 stick of unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup demerara sugar
  • ¾ cup muscovado sugar
  • ¼ cup white granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp bourbon whiskey
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp bourbon vanilla extract
  • 2 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¾ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp fine salt
  • 12 oz of Irish Cream chocolate chips (one packaging)

Instructions

  • Turn on the oven, set it at 375 °F. Also, heat the saucepan to medium-high temperature.
  • In a small bowl, microwave the butter until it melts.
  • Add demerara and muscovado sugar to the saucepan, pour two tablespoons of bourbon whiskey over it and whisk for one minute. Remove from heat and whisk until the sugar dissolves. Add the melted butter to the saucepan, mix it with caramelized sugar and let the mixture cool down to lukewarm.
  • While the butter caramel is cooling, sift the flour to a medium-size bowl. Stir in the baking soda and salt.
  • Transfer the sugar-butter mixture to the other medium-size bowl. While blending with a hand mixer, add bourbon vanilla extract, two eggs, and white granulated sugar.
  • Continue adding the flour mixture in parts to liquid ingredients. For mixing and avoiding clumps, we recommend using the hand mixer again.
  • Grab a wooden spoon and stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Line two baking sheets with a parchment paper. Scoop heaped tablespoons of cookie dough onto the sheet pans. For chewy, soft cookies bake for fourteen minutes, for cookies with crunchy edges bake for sixteen minutes.
  • Take the sheet pans out of the oven and let cool.
