Ingredients:
- 1 cup (225g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup (150g) packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, cold
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
- 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch
- 1 tsp (6g) baking soda
- 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
- 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup (170g) chopped dark chocolate chunks
- 1 cup (115g) toasted walnuts, roughly chopped
Instructions:
- In a bowl, cream the cold, cubed butter with the granulated and brown sugars on medium-high until combined but still thick and gritty.
- Add the cold eggs one at a time and stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture on low speed, mixing until just combined to avoid developing too much gluten.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, dark chocolate chunks, and toasted walnuts.
- Divide the dough into 8 large portions (approximately 6oz each) and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- Place chilled dough mounds on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at a high temperature for 15 minutes until the exterior is mahogany-colored but the center remains gooey.
