Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a stand mixer, cream together cold butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk together cake flour, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts evenly.
Divide dough into 9 portions (about 6 ounces each), shape into balls, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Bake for 10–11 minutes until edges are golden brown but centers remain slightly underbaked.
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10–15 minutes before serving.
