2. In a large bowl, whisk together the cooled brown butter, brown sugar, and white sugar.
3. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, whisking until fully combined.
4. Mix in flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until combined.
5. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
6. Roll into balls and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to help with shape.
7. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
9. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
