Ingredients
Scale
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup dried cherries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the chocolate chips and dried cherries to create your Indulge Chocolate Cherry Cookies dough.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. These are your Chocolate Cherry Cookie Indulgence bites.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your Gourmet Chocolate Cherry Cookies.
Notes
Ensure your butter is at room temperature for best creaming results.
Do not overmix the dough once the flour is added.
Store cooled cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
