How to Make Black Forest Chocolate Cookies
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In a large heatproof bowl, combine 6 ounces dark chocolate (chopped) and 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter.
- Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler). Stir constantly with a rubber spatula until chocolate and butter are melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, beat 2 large eggs and 3/4 cup granulated sugar with an electric mixer on high speed until pale and thick (about 5 minutes).
- Add the cooled chocolate mixture and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until just combined.
- Scrape down the bowl and beat for another 10 seconds.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) and mix on low speed until just combined (about 10 seconds). Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in 1 cup chocolate chips, 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, and 1/2 cup dried cherries using a spatula or wooden spoon.
- The dough will be loose; this is normal. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Once chilled, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until edges are set and tops are cracked.
- Let cool slightly on the baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
