Ingredients
1-1/4 cups packed brown sugar1 cup butter, room temperature2 cups Sourdough Starter1 teaspoon vanilla extract2 cups all-purpose flour1 teaspoon baking soda3-1/2 cups quick-cooking oats1-1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips1/2 cup toasted chopped pecans, optional
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add starter and vanilla; mix well. In another bowl, whisk flour and baking soda; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in oats, chocolate chips and, if desired, pecans.
Drop dough by tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Press lightly on each cookie to flatten. Bake until set but still soft, 10-12 minutes. Cool on pans 3 minutes. Serve warm or remove to wire racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
