Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips or your favorite mix-ins (e.g., nuts, dried fruits)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine softened butter, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Beat until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  2. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing on low until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture.
  4. Fold gently until just combined; avoid over-mixing.
  5. Add chocolate chips or desired mix-ins and fold until evenly distributed.
  6. For firmer cookies, chill dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
