Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cold, cubed unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 ½ cups cake flour
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups roughly chopped walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a stand mixer, cream together the cold butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition and scraping down the bowl as needed.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together cake flour, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients on low speed until just combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts until evenly distributed.
  7. Portion dough into nine rough balls (about six ounces each) without flattening. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Bake for about 10-11 minutes or until golden at the edges but slightly underbaked in the center.
  9. Let cool on sheets for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
