Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (or preferred mix-ins)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  2. Add the egg and vanilla extract; mix on low speed until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually incorporate this mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  4. Gently fold in chocolate chips or your choice of mix-ins until evenly distributed.
  5. For firmer cookies, chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
