Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips and dried cherries.
Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
