This Is the BEST Sourdough Cookie Recipe (Seriously!)
Ingredients
- Flour2 cups + 2 tbsp
- Cornstarch1 ½ tsp
- Baking soda½ tsp
- Baking powder½ tsp
- Salt¾ tsp
- Butter12 tbsp
- Brown sugar1 cup
- Sugar⅓ cups
- Sourdough bread½ cups
- Egg1
- Vanilla2 tsp
- Chocolate chip1 ⅓ cups
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder and salt until uniform.
- In a large bowl, beat the melted butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar for 30 seconds until well blended. Add the egg, extra yolk and vanilla and whisk until thick and smooth, then whisk in the sourdough discard until smooth.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until no streaks remain. Stir in the chocolate chips just until distributed. Cover and chill for 4 to 48 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 175°C/350°F. Scoop 65 to 70 g balls for large cookies (or 45 g for small ones) onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spaced 3 inches apart. Roll into rough balls by hand.
- Bake one sheet at a time: 12 to 15 minutes for large cookies or 10 to 12 minutes for small ones, until the rims are golden and the centers look soft but no longer wet and shiny.
- While the cookies are still hot from the oven, press extra chocolate chips into the tops.
- Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then move them, parchment and all, to a rack.
