Brown Butter Thyme Honey Caramelized Brussels Sprouts Recipes

BROWN BUTTER HONEY COOKIES

Steps:

• Place the butter in a pot over medium heat. Once melted, reduce the heat to low and allow the butter to just barely simmer. Cook until the milk solids that sink are golden brown, about 6 minutes. Set aside to cool until the butter is still liquid, but not hot.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Combine the brown butter, sugars and honey in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on low speed until combined and a homogenous mixture is formed, about 2 minutes. (The mixture will look grainy.) Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition, until incorporated. Add the vanilla.
• Whisk together the flour and baking soda in a small mixing bowl. Add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture and beat just until incorporated, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
• Using a small scooper, scoop 1 1/2-tablespoon mounds onto the prepared baking sheets, being sure to leave distance in between the cookies. Sprinkle with flakey salt.
• Bake until deeply golden brown, about 15 minutes. Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheets for 3 minutes. Move to a cooling rack to cool completely. Dip cookies in Creamy Honey Dip, then top with sprinkles.
• Whisk together the yogurt, honey and spice in a small mixing bowl. Scrape into a serving ramekin. Drizzle with more honey. Serve alongside the cookies.

HONEY-THYME BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy. Add the honey and thyme; beat just until blended. Store in refrigerator.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BROWNED BUTTER

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Add Brussels sprouts; cook until slightly tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and run sprouts under cold water to stop the cooking process. Trim ends off each Brussels sprout and slice sprouts in half.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; arrange Brussels sprouts, cut sides down, in the hot oil. Season with red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Cook Brussels sprouts, keeping them in the same place, until cut sides are browned, 7 to 9 minutes.
• Mix red onion and garlic into Brussels sprouts; cook and stir mixture until Brussels sprouts are cooked through but still firm, 10 to 13 more minutes.
• Place butter in a cold saucepan; place saucepan over medium heat. Cook butter until it begins to bubble and foam, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low; cook, constantly stirring, until butter begins to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and pour browned butter over Brussels sprouts; toss to coat.

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the Brussels sprouts in batches until bright green, about 3-5 minutes per batch. 2. Drain the Brussels sprouts and transfer them to a large bowl of ice water. When cool, remove the sprouts from the water, drain well and cut in half lengthwise. 3. Working in two batches, melt half the butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add the Brussels sprouts and increase the heat to high. 4. Sauté until the Brussels sprouts are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add thyme and honey, and mix well. Season to taste with salt. Transfer to a platter, cover with foil and repeat with remaining Brussels sprouts. 5. Spoon the Brussels sprouts onto a large serving platter and serve immediately.
