WTB Episode 2: The Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie 🍪🧈

Behind every perfect chocolate chip cookie is one non-negotiable ingredient — exceptional butter. In this episode, we show you how VG Saveur premium butter takes your cookies to a whole new level.

What You'll Need

• 200g VG Saveur premium butter, softened
• 200g brown sugar
• 100g caster sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 350g all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp flaky sea salt
• 300g dark chocolate chips or chopped chocolate

Method

1. Brown the butter — Melt VG Saveur butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until it turns golden and smells nutty. This step is the secret to deep, complex flavour. Let it cool slightly.
2. Mix the sugars — Whisk the browned butter with both sugars until well combined and slightly glossy.
3. Add eggs & vanilla — Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract. The mixture should look thick and ribbony.
4. Fold in the dry ingredients — Gently fold in the flour and baking soda until just combined. Don't overmix.
5. Add the chocolate — Fold in the chocolate chips generously. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes (overnight is even better).
6. Bake — Scoop onto a lined baking tray, sprinkle with flaky sea salt, and bake at 175°C for 11–13 minutes until the edges are set but the centre is still soft. They'll firm up as they cool.

Why Butter Makes the Cookie

Browning VG Saveur premium butter unlocks a nutty, caramel-like depth that ordinary butter simply can't match — thanks to its higher fat content and superior quality. The result? Cookies with crisp edges, chewy centres, and a flavour that keeps people coming back for more.
