Ingredients
Scale
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup dried cherries, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped dried cherries.
Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips.
