Place flour and baking soda together in a bowl and whisk to combine; set aside

Place 10 tbsp butter in 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until melted, about 2 minutes. Continue cooking and using the handle of the pan to swirl the butter around in the skillet. Swirl butter constantly until it becomes a dark golden brown in color and gives off a nutty aroma, 1-3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and transfer browned butter to large heatproof bowl. Stir reaming 6 tbsp butter into hot butter until completely melted.

Add both sugars, salt, and vanilla to brown butter mixture and whisk until fully incorporated. Add eggs and whisk until mixture is smooth with no sugar lumps remaining, about 30 seconds. Rest mixture for 3 minutes, then whisk for another 30 seconds. Repeat process of resting and whisking 2 more times until mixture is thick, smooth, and shiny. Using sturdy rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir in flour mixture until just combined, about 2 minute. Stir in chocolate chips giving dough final stir to ensure no flour pockets remain.

Using a #24 cookie scoop (basically a small ice cream scoop) or using a spoon scoop out approximately 2 heaping tbsp of dough and flatten it into a round disc and place a Snickers on top. Fold edges over Snickers to seal it in (Optional: For added richness press in chopped Snickers on top). Pace cookies 2 inches apart on parchment lined baking sheets.

Bake cookies 1 sheet at a time at 375F until cookies are golden brown and still puff, and edges have begun to set but centers are still soft, about 10-14 minutes. Transfer baking sheet to wire rack to cool cookies.
