Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, melt the unsalted butter until just liquid but not hot. Allow it to cool slightly.
Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the melted butter and whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and whisk again until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, form 1.5-tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still appear soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your soft, chewy brown sugar cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite warm beverage.
