2 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 cup semi-salted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 egg
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1 cup dried cherries
1 cup raw pecans
1/2 tsp flaky sea salt
Optional: holiday sprinkles

Directions

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Sift together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, kosher salt, and baking soda in a bowl, and set aside.

  • Step 2

    With a hand mixer or stand mixer (paddle attachment), cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla, and beat until well combined, then gradually add the bowl of dry ingredients, being careful not to over mix.

  • Step 3

    Fold in chocolate, cherries, and pecans, hand-crushed. Using either a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon, drop cookie dough about 2.5 inches (6.5 cm) apart onto the baking sheets and sprinkle with a little salt (and the decorative sprinkles if desired).

  • Step 4

    Bake until the edges of cookies are lightly golden, about 12 to 14 minutes. Halfway through the baking process rotate the pans. Let cool and enjoy!
