Description

Delightful cookies using leftover sourdough discard, featuring a rich, nutty flavor from brown butter and packed with chocolate chips.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt unsalted butter over medium heat until browned and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, mix browned butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Stir in sourdough discard until well combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips evenly into the dough.
  6. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto lined baking sheets and bake for 10–12 minutes or until edges are golden.

Notes

Chill the dough for longer if you want thicker cookies. Use good quality chocolate chips for the best flavor.
