  2. Line 2 cookie sheets with silpat or parchment paper.
  3. In a bowl whisk flour and baking soda together.
  4. In a large skillet, heat 10 Tablespoons butter over medium high heat, swirling pan until butter turns a golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat, pour melted butter into a large mixing bowl and add the remaining 4 Tablespoons butter, whisking until butter melts.
