Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream the ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, Greek yogurt, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Bake the cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are just set.
- Cool and serve: Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Using Greek yogurt makes the cookies soft and slightly chewy.
- You can substitute vanilla or honey yogurt for extra flavor.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
