Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups cake flour
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 large egg yolks, room temperature
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 8 oz chocolate bar, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup roughly chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Sift together the flours, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth, about 2–3 minutes.
  • Add eggs and yolks one at a time, mixing well after each.
  • Mix in dry ingredients just until combined.
  • Fold in chocolate chips, chopped chocolate, and walnuts (if using).
  • Cover dough and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Portion dough using a 1/3 cup measure and form into thick mounds. Do not flatten.
  • Bake 10–12 minutes until tops are just lightly browned.
  • Let cookies rest on sheet for 15–30 minutes, then cool on wire rack before serving.

Notes

For maximum gooey centers, resist overbaking! Pulling them early and letting them rest is key.
