Ingredients
480g (4 cups) all-purpose flour
9.6g (2 tsp) baking soda
10.66g (4 tsp) corn starch/arrowroot
12g (2 tsp) salt (coarse salt)
336g (3 sticks) of browned unsalted butter, cooled
384g (2 cups) brown sugar
96g (½ cup) cane sugar
1 egg + 1 egg yolk
10g pure vanilla extract
240g sourdough discard
336g (1½ cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips
360g (1½ cups) milk chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
In a stand mixer or large bowl, combine the cooled butter and sugars. Mix until combined.
Add in egg and egg yolk, one at a time and stir until combined.
Add in vanilla and sourdough discard and mix.
Add in half of the dry ingredients then mix until just incorporated. Add remaining flour mixture.
Do not over mix or you'll have tough cookies.
If your mixture is too wet, add a tablespoon of flour at a time until it's a good texture. If it's too dry, add a little bit more melted butter.
Mix in your chocolate chips.
Make 1½-2 tablespoon size balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Cover with plastic and stick in the fridge for 30 mins.
Bake for 12-14 mins. Don't over bake!
Leave in the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
Remove from the baking sheet and place onto a cooling rack.
