This should take about 10 minutes. Step 3: Once done, let cool slightly and place in a container and place in the fridge until solid again. Set your oven to 375ºF. Step 4: After you’ve chilled the browned butter and toasted the nuts, you’re ready to make the cookies! for the cookies: Step 1: Sift the salt, baking soda, and flour together into a medium bowl and set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer, using the paddle attachment*, beat the browned butter, shortening, and sugars together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. This should take about 6 - 7 minutes. Be sure to stop once, scraping down the sides of the bowl, to ensure all the butter and shortening is mixed in. Step 2: Next, add the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla beating well. If you do not have a stand mixer, you can use a hand mixer up until the addition of the dry ingredients. Step 3: Then fold in the chocolate chips, brickle, and nuts by hand. Step 4: Gradually add the dry ingredients to butter mixture, with the mixer on low until just blended. Stir in chocolate chips, brickle, and nuts. Step 5: Chill cookie dough for 15 minutes. Scoop cookies onto a lined baking sheet.

Cover with another piece of plastic wrap and using a mallet or rolling pin, flatten the chicken breasts until they are even in thickness. Step 3: Next, make a breading station with 3 shallow dishes: one shallow dish with the seasoned flour, the second with the seasoned beaten egg and the third with the seasoned breadcrumbs. Step 4: Take a chicken breast piece one by one and dip them in each shallow dish in that order (flour, egg, breadcrumbs) shaking off the excess of flour and egg and then making sure to fully coat with the breadcrumbs.
