These sourdough chocolate chip cookies are delicious. Full of that classic chocolate flavor with a hint of sourdough, they are more substantial than your average cookie.
This recipe uses sourdough discard. A yummy way to use your discard that the whole family will approve of.
Make a batch and keep it in the fridge. Bake a couple whenever the craving hits. They are good in the fridge for about 3-4 days. You can also freeze the dough. Place scoops of cookie dough on a pan and flash freeze them and then you can throw them into a freezer bag and store in the freezer. This prevents them from sticking together. Anytime you want a cookie, pull out however many you want and let them thaw a little on a cookie sheet and then bake. Or bake frozen and just bake a little longer.
Happy Baking,
