Instructions
- Preheat the oven? No: line large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oats, all-purpose flour, cake flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
- In a stand or hand mixer, beat the softened butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until creamy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, molasses and vanilla and beat on high speed for about 1 minute. Scrape down the bowl and beat again as needed.
- Add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, then add the chopped chocolate, cranberries and walnuts. Beat on low speed until combined. The dough is thick and sticky.
- Cover and chill the dough for at least 1 hour (up to 4 days). If chilled longer than a day, let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before rolling.
- Scoop about 3 ounces (85g) of dough per cookie with a 1/3-cup measure and arrange 5 to 6 on each sheet.
- Bake for 5 minutes, then, without opening the oven, lower the temperature to 350°F (177°C) and bake 10 more minutes.
- Cool on the sheet for 10 to 20 minutes, then move to a wire rack to cool completely.
