- Meanwhile, place your dark brown sugar and regular sugar in the bowl of a mixer. Combine sugars with vanilla, and slowly pour in browned butter. Mix to combine. Add eggs and mix to combine. Add flour and salt and mix until just combined, careful not to over mix. Scrape down sides.
- Spread evenly into the bottom of your prepared 9x13 pan, The dough will be thick, like peanut butter. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the edges are lightly brown and just starting to pull from sides. Remove from oven and allow to cool on a wire rack.
