In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and espresso powder. Set aside.
2️⃣ Make the wet batter
In a stand mixer (or mixing bowl), beat together the egg, egg yolk, and brown sugar for 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add granulated sugar and beat for another minute.
3️⃣ Add the butter
Add cold cubed butter and mix on medium speed for 2–3 minutes until it starts to break down and combine with the sugars. Mix in vanilla bean paste.
4️⃣ Combine
Gradually add the dry ingredients. When the dough starts to come together, fold in the toasted walnuts and chocolate chips.
(It might look crumbly at first — keep mixing gently until it forms a cohesive dough. Avoid overmixing!)
5️⃣ Shape the cookies
Form 6-ounce tall cookie dough balls and arrange them on a parchment-lined tray. Freeze for 30–40 minutes.
6️⃣ Bake
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place no more than 4 cookies per baking sheet, spacing them apart.
Bake 15–18 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are soft.
7️⃣ Cool & enjoy
Let the cookies rest on the tray for 10 minutes — they’ll firm up slightly while staying gooey inside.

✨Tips
For an extra chocolatey top, press a few chocolate chips into each dough ball before baking.
Sprinkle flaky sea salt after baking for the perfect sweet-salty finish.
Cookies freeze beautifully — bake from frozen when that craving hits.
