To die for chocolate chip cookies

I've had a serious craving for chocolate chip cookies.
I mean, aren't chocolate chip cookies, the best cookie on earth?
So, I decided to satisfy my craving, in a Deliciously Healthy way, by making these:
What you need:
  • 1 cup and 2 tablespoons unbleached all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter- divided
  • 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon low-fat milk
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips- divided
What you do:
  1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease 2 large baking sheets. Whisk flour, salt, and baking soda together in a bowl, and set aside.
  2. Heat 3 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat until melted, about 2 minutes. Continue cooking, swirling pan constantly until butter is dark golden brown (1 to 3 minutes). Pour butter into a bowl. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter into hot butter until completely melted.
  3. Add both sugars, salt, milk and vanilla to bowl with butter and whisk until smooth. Add egg and whisk until mixture is smooth with no sugar lumps. Let mixture stand 3 minutes, then whisk for 30 seconds. Repeat process of resting and whisking 2 more times until mixture is thick, smooth and shiny. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Stir in 6 tablespoons of chocolate chips.
  4. Divide dough into 16 1 inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Press the remaining 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips into the tops of the cookies.
  5. Bake cookies 1 tray at a time for 8-11 minutes. Transfer baking sheet to wire rack.
Here's what I'm thinkin':

They were perfect.
