Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together the yogurt, butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Add Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Bake: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  7. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • These cookies are soft and cake-like thanks to the yogurt.
  • For extra richness, substitute half of the yogurt with additional butter or add a handful of chopped nuts.
