Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time and then the vanilla extract, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and mix on low speed until combined, careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chocolate chunks using a spatula.
  7. Using a cookie scoop, portion out ¼ to ½ cup of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 3 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes for ¼ cup portions or 15-20 minutes for ½ cup portions, aiming for slightly underbaked centers.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
