Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Cookie Croissant
  1. Melt ½ cup of salted butter in a saucepan over low heat until fragrant and golden brown, about 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  2. Whisk together the cooled brown butter with ½ cup of white sugar and ½ cup of light brown sugar until well combined. Add 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix 1 ½ cups of flour with ½ teaspoon of baking soda. Gradually fold this into the wet ingredients, then gently fold in 1 cup of dark chocolate chips.
  4. Slice 6 croissants in half lengthwise. Place approximately 2 tablespoons of cookie dough inside each croissant and close gently.
  5. Dollop 2 tablespoons of leftover cookie dough on top of each croissant, adding more chocolate chips.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake croissants on a lined baking sheet for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with sea salt before serving warm.
