Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Sift together 2¼ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon baking soda into a bowl; set aside.
-
Step 2.
In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter (room temperature), 1¼ cups packed light brown sugar, and ¾ cup granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Mix in 2 large eggs and 1½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
-
Step 3.
With mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture until well incorporated. Stir in 2 cups plain granola and ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats, followed by 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips and ½ cup coarsely chopped dried cherries.
-
Step 4.
Drop dough by the rounded tablespoonful onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches in between. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until cookies are puffed and edges are lightly golden. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
