Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Mix-Ins:
- 1½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream the ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Add chocolate chips: Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Bake: Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers look just set.
- Cool: Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Greek yogurt adds moisture and a slight tang, making these cookies soft and chewy.
- You can use full-fat or low-fat yogurt, but avoid fat-free for best texture.
- For extra flavor, try mixing in chopped walnuts or using dark chocolate chips.
