  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold and cubed

  • 1 cup light brown sugar

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • 1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chunks

Instructions

  • Mix flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.

  • In a stand mixer, beat cold butter with sugars until creamy.

  • Gradually mix in dry ingredients until combined.

  • Fold in both types of chocolate.
