Yogurt Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe

3 servings

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

1/4 cup margarine or butter

1/4 cup shortening

1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Grease cookie sheets.

In a medium bowl, cream together the brown sugar, white sugar, margarine and shortening until light and fluffy.

Stir in yogurt and vanilla.

Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until incorporated, then mix in chocolate chips.

Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges begin to brown.

Cool for a minute on the cookie sheets before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
