Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup sourdough discard (unfed)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup cocoa powder
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions
1. Cream butter and both sugars until light and fluffy.
2. Add egg, sourdough discard, and vanilla. Mix until combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk cocoa powder, flour, baking soda, and salt.
4. Add dry ingredients to wet and mix until just combined.
5. Fold in chocolate chips.
6. Chill dough for 30 minutes.
