Browning Butter
This may seem hard or fancy, but it’s so simple and quick and adds amazing flavor. Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until nutty and brown in color. About 4 1/2-5 minutes. You’ll see a definite change- it will go from bubbling and noisy to foaming and quiet. As soon as it goes quiet, take it off the heat. I stir with a whisk regularly to prevent burning.
Why I love Danish Creamery
Celebrating its 125th birthday this year, Danish Creamery is named after its heritage of Danish founding farmers and has a history of producing high-quality butter from the fresh cream provided by the pasture-raised cows on its family farms.
Danish Creamery’s gold-foil wrapped rBST-Free European Style Butter boasts an 85% butterfat (much higher than most other European Style butters which come in at 82-83%) making it a dream in baking applications.
The secret to Danish Creamery’s velvety, rich butter lies in the health of its cows and land. For that reason, our family farmers ensure that the cream in our butter comes from cows that are humanely raised, munching
grass in wide open spaces just as nature intended. Not only do they stay healthier, but they produce tasty, nutritious milk – the key ingredient to perfect Danish Creamery butters.
These bars are so simple to make and sure to become a favorite. They’re like an amazing chocolate chip cookie, but taken to the next level with the browned butter.
