3/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted |
2 eggs |
2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream |

1-1/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup dried figs, finely chopped |
1 cup white baking chips, divided |
3/4 cup chopped walnuts |
