Description

Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookies made with Sourdough Discard, offering a unique twist to traditional cookies.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 4 teaspoons corn starch or arrowroot
  • 2 teaspoons coarse salt
  • 1 ½ cups browned butter, cooled
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • ½ cup cane sugar
  • 1 egg plus 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1.5 cups milk chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, corn starch, and salt.
  2. Cream the butter and sugars: Beat the cooled browned butter with both sugars until creamy and fluffy.
  3. Add wet ingredients: Mix in the egg and egg yolk one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract and sourdough discard.
  4. Combine dry and wet: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing gently.
  5. Adjust the dough consistency: If needed, sprinkle in more flour or add melted butter to achieve the right consistency.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips: Gently fold in the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips.
  7. Chill the dough: Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat the oven: Set the oven to 350°F (176°C).
  9. Shape and bake: Roll dough into balls, place on a baking sheet, and bake for 12 to 14 minutes.
  10. Cool: Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Chilling the dough helps improve the flavor and texture.
  • Do not overmix once the flour is added to prevent tough cookies.
  • Adjust baking time based on oven and cookie size.
