Ingredients 

  • ¾ cup cane sugar
  • ¾ cup packed dark brown sugar
  • ¾ cup butter, softened
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • ½ cup greek yogurt,, (see notes)
  • 1 ¾ cups all purpose flour
  • ¼ cup espresso powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, or chocolate chunks

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 375ºF.
  • Beat cane sugar, brown sugar, and butter until creamy and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes). Add in vanilla and yogurt and beat for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine flour, espresso powder, baking soda and salt. Fold in the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and combine with a spatula until just mixed.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake 8-10 minutes or until barely turning light brown. Let them set for about 3-5 minutes then move to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling process.
  • Serve warm or let cool, then enjoy!

Notes

  • For the cane sugar, I like to use Zulka Pure Cane Sugar. Regular granulated sugar will work perfectly fine, but I love the texture pure cane sugar gives to the cookies.
  • For the Greek yogurt, I like to use full fat (Fage is my favorite!). However, low-fat regular or Greek yogurt has a delicious outcome as well!
  • Storing Suggestions. If you have any left, you can store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. You can also refrigerate them for about a week.
  • Freezing Suggestions. Line an airtight, freezer-safe container with parchment paper. Scoop onto the parchment paper using a cookie scoop. You can add more layers of parchment paper as needed. Thaw on a cookie sheet or in the container before you bake.
