Instructions
- In a small bowl mix together the lievito madre discard and milk.
- In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- In the mixing bowl on medium speed, cream the butter and sugar until light and creamy.
- Add the egg and beat to combine, add the oil, starter and vanilla and combine. Add the flour a little at a time on low speed, when almost combined add the chocolate chips, mix to form a soft but not sticky dough. Cover the bowl and chill for at least 1 hour.
- Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C). Line 1-2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll the dough into golfball size (smaller or larger as desired) balls and place on the prepared cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. (I made 6 large cookies and 1 9 inch cookie).
- Bake the cookies 10-12 minutes and the large cookie 15-20 minutes or until golden. Of course time also depends on your oven. Let cool approximately 10 minutes before removing to a cooling rack. Enjoy!
Notes
- If you make a large cookie, drizzle with melted chocolate if you want to make it even more chocolatey.
- Store the cooled baked cookies in an air tight container at room temperature. If properly stored they will keep for up to 5-7 days.
- The best way to freeze the cookies is to place the completely cooled cookies in a single layer on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and freeze until firm, 2-3 hours should be enough time, then place in cookies in a freezer safe bag or container.They will stay fresh for up to 3 months. Let them sit out at room temperature to thaw before serving.
- Unbaked cookie dough should be stored in an airtight container for up to 7 days. Unbaked cookie dough really isn’t safe for consumption.
- The cookie dough can also be frozen, it is best to freeze the formed dough balls on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer safe bag or container. They will keep for up to 3 months in the freezer. The cookies can be baked straight from the freezer, add a couple of minutes extra to the baking time.
