Yogurt Chocolate Chip Cookies


I cannot stop eating these cookies! Crispy and a little tangy, these cookies cut the butter content in half. Also, they don't contain any eggs, which means more cookie dough eating and less guilt! I got the recipe from Shannon's Kitchen.

  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup plain nonfat Chobani Greek yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.

2. In a medium bowl, cream together the brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Stir in yogurt and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until incorporated, then mix in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded tablespoons, 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets. 

3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges begin to brown. Cool for a minute on the cookie tray before removing.
