  1. Preheat the oven to 375. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat together butter, sugar, corn syrup, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until well incorporated. Gradually beat flour mixture into butter mixture until just combined.
  4. With a rubber spatula, fold in chocolate chunks, raisins, pecans, and oats.
  5. Drop generous 2 inch balls of dough, spaced 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets, and flatten with the palm of your hand. Bake 12 to 16 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp rotating pans halfway through.
  6. Cool 5 minutes on baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
