2 cups of all-purpose flour
1 cup of granulated sugar
½ cup of brown sugar
1 teaspoon of baking powder
½ teaspoon of baking soda
¼ teaspoon of salt
½ cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1 teaspoon of almond extract
1 cup of cherries, chopped (fresh or dried)
½ cup of sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter with both sugars until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Add in the egg and almond extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until it forms a soft dough.
Gently fold in the chopped cherries and sliced almonds.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
