1large egg + 1 egg yolk

Instructions
In a bowl, sift and whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla, then whisk until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix just until no dry spots remain.
Fold in the white chocolate, dried cranberries, and walnuts until evenly distributed.
Divide the dough into 12 large portions (about 3-4 tablespoons each), roll into balls, and place on a tray. Chill for at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place chilled dough balls on the baking sheet spaced about 3 inches apart. Bake in 2 trays if needed to avoid overcrowding.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are just set. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with flaky sea salt while still warm.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
