Step 1

Dough: Begin by creaming together the butter, sugar, vanilla extract, egg, and egg yolk in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients, the flour, baking powder, and salt, mix with a whisk until combined. Then slowly add the dry ingredients to the bowl of wet ingredients while mixing until incorporated.

Next, fold in the dried cherries and white chocolate chips until just combined. Proceed to cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and place it into the fridge to chill for at least 1 hour.

Step 4

Prep and Bake: Start preheating the oven to 350degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Then, scoop the cookie dough into1-inch-sized balls and place them evenly onto the baking sheet.

Step 5

Continue to place the cookies into the preheated oven and for 10 minutes. Once baking is complete, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let cool for about 5-10 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
