Description

Deliciously chewy chocolate chip cookies infused with sourdough for a unique flavor twist.


Ingredients

  • 450 grams flour (3 cups)
  • 6 grams baking soda (1 tsp)
  • 3 grams baking powder (1/2 tsp)
  • 100 grams sourdough discard (1/2 cup)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 228 grams room temperature unsalted butter (1 cup)
  • 150 grams brown sugar (3/4 cup lightly packed)
  • 150 grams white sugar (3/4 cup)
  • 5 grams salt (1 tsp)
  • 4.2 grams vanilla extract (1 tsp)
  • 340 grams chocolate chips (2 cups)


Instructions

  1. Whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder in a bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, blend together the sourdough discard, both sugars, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and blend until just combined.
  4. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Scoop the dough onto a lined cookie sheet, spacing them apart, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  7. Once chilled, bake the cookies for about 10 minutes or until they appear almost done but remain soft in the center.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack.

Notes

Chilling the dough is crucial for thicker cookies. Store cookies in an airtight container. They freeze well for later enjoyment.
