#1,408: Chocolate Fudge Yogurt Cookies


These cookies have the potential of being REALLY rich and chocolaty!  I cut down the amount of cocoa powder by half, and then I totally forgot to add in the chocolate chips.  :(  Bummer.  But, it really didn't need it.  If anything, the chocolate chips would have made it more sinful and rich, but overall, these are still really, really good.  The kids loved these, and I told them they can eat them for breakfast tomorrow...which they were excited to hear.  :)   These are a little dense and not the prettiest of cookies, but my crew liked them, so that's all that really matters to me.  


1 egg
1 and ½ cup powdered sugar
1 and ¼ cup greek yogurt, you can add a little more if you feel the dough is too thick
1 and ½ cup flour
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (I used ½ cup)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla powder or extract
A pinch of salt
1 cup chocolate chips (I omitted…because I forgot to add it!)
2 teaspoons sea salt

Preheat oven to 180C (350F). Line an oven tray with parchment paper.
Whisk the egg and sugar together until smooth.

Mix flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, vanilla powder and salt (not the sea salt) in a separate bowl. Add it in the egg mixture gradually and stir with a spatula well.
If the dough gets too thick to stir, add a little extra Greek yogurt and combine it with the dough well.

Fold in chocolate chips. Drop batter in the tray with the help of two teaspoons and bake for 10 minutes.

Transfer them on a wire rack right after you remove them from oven, sprinkle sea salt on each. You can keep these 5-7 days in an airtight container.
