How to Make Double Chocolate Cabernet Cherry Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a small bowl, soak 1 cup dried cranberries in 1/4 cup Cabernet Sauvignon for 5-10 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Beat well until combined.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Make a well in the center of the wet ingredients and gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Gently fold in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and the soaked cranberries (drained).
  8. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto a greased or parchment-lined cookie sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are set and centers are still slightly soft. Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
