Summary

Chewy, nutty monster cookies with crisp edges, a tangy lift from sourdough discard, and pockets of melty chocolate chips and candy-coated chocolates. A playful, indulgent bite that balances sweetness, peanut butter richness, and hearty oats.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until fully combined.

  2. 2

    Add the egg and vanilla extract; mix until combined.

  3. 3

    Stir in the sourdough discard until incorporated.

  4. 4

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, salt, and baking soda.

  5. 5

    Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and fold together. When mostly incorporated, add the chocolate chips and coated chocolate candies, and mix until evenly combined.

  6. 6

    Scoop about 1/4 cup of dough per cookie, roll into balls, and gently press into discs. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake 10–11 minutes, until edges are lightly browned and centers are still slightly soft.

  7. 7

    Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
