½ cup Greek yogurt
½ cup cocoa powder
⅓ cup maple syrup or honey
1 egg
½ cup flour (regular or gluten-free)
½ tsp baking soda
Pinch of salt
⅓ cup chocolate chips
Preparation
Instructions
1. Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, egg, and maple syrup or honey until smooth.
2. Add Dry Ingredients
Stir in cocoa powder, flour, baking soda, and salt until fully combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
3. Chill the Dough
Refrigerate the dough for 20–30 minutes. This step is essential for achieving the fudgy texture and helping the cookies hold their shape.
4. Bake
Preheat oven to 350°F. Scoop dough onto a lined baking sheet.
Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the tops are crackly and the edges are set.
5. Cool & Enjoy
Allow cookies to cool before serving — this is when they become extra fudgy and rich.
Tips & Variations
Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before baking for a bakery-style finish.
Add walnuts or pecans for crunch.
Use dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
Store in the fridge for an even fudgier texture.
