Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

In small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, stirring constantly until golden brown.

Continue cooking butter until it develops nutty aroma and amber color, about 5 minutes.

Remove browned butter from heat and let cool for 10 minutes until warm.

In large mixing bowl, combine cooled brown butter with both sugars until creamy.

Beat in eggs one at a time, then vanilla extract and almond extract thoroughly.

Add corn syrup and heavy cream, mixing until smooth and well combined.

In separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cornstarch, and cinnamon.

Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.

Gently fold in Rice Krispies cereal, being careful not to crush the cereal pieces.

Add chocolate chips and mini chocolate chips, distributing evenly throughout dough.

Fold in chopped walnuts and oats if using for extra texture and crunch.

Chill cookie dough for 15 minutes to prevent excessive spreading during baking.

Using large cookie scoop, portion dough into 2-tablespoon sized balls evenly.

Place cookie dough balls 3 inches apart on prepared baking sheets carefully.

Gently press additional Rice Krispies and chocolate chips onto tops of cookies.

Sprinkle lightly with coarse sugar and sea salt flakes for gourmet finish.

Bake for 9-11 minutes until edges are golden but centers still look soft.

Remove from oven when cookies appear slightly underbaked in the center.

Let cookies cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack.

Cool completely to allow texture to set and flavors to develop fully.

Optional: Drizzle cooled cookies with melted chocolate for extra indulgence throughout.

Store in airtight container for up to one week, layering with parchment paper.

Serve at room temperature for best texture and full flavor development.
