Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°; line 2 sturdy cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
- Sift the flour, cocoa, and baking soda into a bowl; set aside.
- In a bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar, vanilla, and salt with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and scrape the bowl well.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix just until no streaks remain.
- Fold in the chocolate chips, dried cherries, and raisins by hand.
- Drop the dough by heaping tablespoonfuls at least 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 14 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through the baking time.

- Let cool on the pans for a few minutes to firm up slightly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
