Description
Soft and chewy cookies enhanced with Greek yogurt for extra moisture and flavor, filled with semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gently mix in the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Beat on low speed until just combined.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula.
- Drop tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the cookies for 9-12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden brown but the centers remain soft.
- Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For thicker cookies, chill the dough for an hour before baking. Try different types of chocolate chips for variety.
