These Greek Yogurt Chocolate Chip Cookies are soft, chewy, and egg-free with a cozy brown sugar flavor and plenty of melty chocolate chips. They are quick to make and perfect for snacks, dessert, or lunchboxes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Set your oven to 375°F and let it fully preheat. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper so the cookies do not stick and the bottoms bake evenly.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture looks light and fluffy. Scrape the bowl as needed so everything blends evenly.
  3. Add the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Beat again until the wet ingredients are fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together. This helps distribute the leavening and seasoning through the dough.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and beat just until combined. The dough will be sticky, and that is expected.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly scattered throughout the dough.
  7. Scoop the dough by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches between each cookie so they have room to spread while baking.
  8. Bake for 9 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should still look soft.
  9. Let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Regular yogurt can be used in place of Greek yogurt if needed.
  • Store the baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
