Brown butter + sourdough discard = soft, chewy cookies that are pure bliss. Don’t toss that discard — it deserves this!
Ingredients:
• 100 g sourdough discard
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 sticks (1 cup) browned butter, cooled slightly
• 1 egg + 1 egg yolk
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 bag chocolate chips
• Flaky sea salt, for finishing
Instructions:
1️⃣ Brown the butter and let it cool.
2️⃣ Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3️⃣ Mix sugars + browned butter, then add discard, egg, egg yolk, and vanilla.
4️⃣ Fold in dry ingredients and chocolate chips.
5️⃣ Chill dough 1-2 hrs (overnight is preferred)
6️⃣ Preheat oven to 350°F. Scoop dough onto lined baking sheets.
7️⃣ Bake 10–12 min until edges set and centers are soft.

✨ Hoochie Mama Tip: These cookies are even better straight from the oven. Don’t fight it — eat one warm.
