Low Fat Chocolate Chip Cookies

I was super excited to try baking these cookies made with Greek yogurt in place of butter. They actually came out pretty good! They're less dense than a normal cookie and a little more fluffy or cake-like. Warm these up in the microwave to get the dark chocolate all melty again and you're set for a delicious afternoon treat! If you don't have a stand mixer the recipe works fine with a hand mixer too.

Ingredients
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups dark chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. 
2. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl, set aside. 
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together sugar and eggs until combined. Add in the Greek yogurt and vanilla, beat to combine. Slowly add in the flour on a low speed. 
4. Turn the mixer off and fold in chocolate chips. 
5. Place 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie on a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
6. Bake for about 10 minutes.
