To a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the butter and both the white and brown sugar. Beat until creamed, about 3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla to the dough and mix until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix briefly again until well combined.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the baking powder, baking soda, salt, and flour. Add the flour mixture to the cookie dough batter and mix again until just combined, forming a homogeneous dough.
Add the milk chocolate chips, chopped dark chocolate, and chopped cherries to the cookie dough. Mix until combined with your hands or a wooden spoon.
Portion the dough using a cookie scoop into 12 cookie dough balls. Place the cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill them in the fridge for 2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (350°F) and line two large baking trays with parchment paper. Place six cookies onto each baking tray.
Bake cookies on the prepared baking sheets in a preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are crisp and the cookies are a light golden brown and have spread slightly. Bake six cookies at a time. Remove the cookies from the oven, sprinkle them with a bit of extra sea salt, and allow them to cool on a wire rack. Serve and enjoy!
