Sourdough chocolate chip cookies are perfectly soft and packed with chocolate chunks. The light tanginess from the sourdough makes the yummiest cookies.

    Roll cookies into a ball using 3 tablespoons of dough per cookie. I have a cookie scoop for this. Place them 2 inches apart on a parchment lined cookie sheet.

    Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour, or up to 2 days for a longer fermentation. For best results, I like the texture and taste when they sit in the fridge for 12-24 hours best!
