Yoghurt Chocolate Chip Cookies
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup caster sugar
1/4 cup butter
3/4 cup plain low-fat yoghurt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC)
Grease cookie sheets or line with baking parchment paper.
In a medium bowl cream the sugars and butter until light and fluffy. Stir in the yoghurt and vanilla.
In another bowl combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir into the creamed mixture until nicely combine then add the chocolate chips. Drop by rounded teaspoons on the prepared cookie sheet(s)... about 2 inches apart and bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Cool for about 1 minute on the cookie sheet before removing to cool completely on wire racks.
Notes: You may add a few tablespoons of applesauce when creaming the sugars and butter together. I added a teaspoon of British Mixed Spice into the flour mixture. When the cookies come out of the oven they are puffed up however I took a fork and gently pressed the tops of the baked cookies down, to get a more compact chewy cookie, before transferring them to wire racks.
Have a great weekend everyone! - JD
