The holidays are almost here and we all love to bring something to those parties. Try making these not only delicious cookies using brown butter, but fun to get the whole family together and bond in the kitchen like I have done here with Elle. If your not a fan of orange marmalade try making these with your favorite marmalade or jam.

Ingredients:
1 cup butter, sliced (2 sticks)
¾ cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ teaspoon salt
2 ½ cups all purpose flour
½ cup sweet orange marmalade
Directions:
To Brown the Butter
In a sauce pan over medium heat. Add the butter to the pan and let it melt.
Once melted, swirl the pan till the butter produces brown flecks and the butter smells of a strong nutty aroma.
Take the brown butter off the heat and let the butter cool. The butter will go from brown to burnt very quickly so be sure to watch the butter. If needed, transfer the browned butter to a cool pan.
To Make the cookies:
Pre-heat the oven to 350F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment.
In a bowl add the cooled brown butter and sugar. Using the whisk attachment, whisk until the butter and sugar are thoroughly creamed together. It should appear light and fluffy.
Add the large egg and vanilla and whisk until nicely incorporated.
Mix together the salt and flour and then add it to the brown butter mixture. Mix together until the dough is thoroughly combined and pulling away from the sides of the mixing bowl.
For the best looking cookie, place the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Scoop tablespoon sized dough and roll into balls. Place them on the parchment about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies for 8 minutes and then take them out of the oven. Make a thumbprint in the middle of each cookie and then place back into the oven for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cookie is done. I like these cookies just golden in color around the edges. If the edges are any darker the cookie will be crispier.
Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer to a cooling rack.
Fill each cookie with sweet orange marmalade and let them sit for about 10 minutes before serving.
