Yogurt Chocolate Chip Cookies

June 2, 2011

These cookies are so soft and yummy! I love them because they avoid both corn and egg products so I don’t have to limit myself with them because of my allergies! These bake up light and fluffy and thick but not too thick. The yogurt gives them a lighter taste than a regular chocolate chip [...]
