Ingredients

  • plus 1 tbsp all-purpose flour

    200g

    1 ⅓ c
  • corn starch
    1 tsp
  • tsp baking soda
    ½
  • salt
    ½ tsp
  • unsalted butter
    ½ c
  • packed dark brown sugar
    ½ c
  • granulated sugar
    ⅓ c
  • plain full fat yogurt

    at room temperature

    ¼ c
  • pure vanilla extract
    1 ½ tsp
  • dark chocolate

    coarsely chopped, plus extra for topping

    1 c
  • flaky sea salt

Directions

  1. 1

    Place butter in a small saucepan over low heat and stir until just 75% melted. Remove from heat and continue to stir until it is all melted. It should be creamy and pale yellow/custardy looking. This gentle melting process ensures that the butter isn’t over-heated and not too hot. You can also melt in the microwave in a heat-safe bowl in 20 second increments at 50% power until 75% melted.

  2. 2

    Place cool melted butter in a large mixing bowl and add brown sugar, granulated sugar and vanilla. Whisk together to combine. Add yogurt and whisk gently at first to blend, then continue whisking a bit more briskly until it starts to thicken and look creamy.

  3. 3

    Combine flour, corn starch, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl and whisk to blend evenly. Add this mixture to the bowl with the butter/yogurt mixture and fold it in until mostly combined but a few streaks still remain. Then, add the chocolate chunks and fold them in evenly. Cover the bowl and place it in the fridge for 2 hours.

  4. 4

    Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper.

  5. 5

    Use a 1.35-oz cookie scoop to portion dough and roll into smooth balls. Place them onto prepared baking sheets spacing them 3 inches apart. Flatten the dough balls slightly and press a few extra chocolate chunks on top if desired. Bake for 9-11 minutes until they are puffed in the middle and the edges are set and golden brown. They should still be a bit soft in the middle.

  6. 6

    Transfer trays to a cooling rack and let cookies cool for 2 minutes on the trays before transferring them individually to the rack to finish cooling. Top with flaky sea salt if desired.

This recipe achieves truly remarkable chewy edges and soft, tender middles, even without eggs, thanks to a thoughtful blend of ingredients. The combination of dark brown sugar and a touch of plain full-fat yogurt helps create that signature moist and bendy texture, while generous chunks of dark chocolate ensure gooey, melty pockets throughout.

Prepare for a delightful sensory experience. You'll bite into a cookie with a slight tug from its chewy exterior, giving way to a wonderfully soft and moist interior. Each mouthful is studded with rich, dark chocolate that melts beautifully. A sprinkle of flaky sea salt on top elevates the sweetness, balancing the flavors perfectly.

Feel free to experiment with your chocolate. While dark chocolate is specified, you could use milk chocolate or a mix of dark and semi-sweet for a different profile.

These decadent cookies are perfect for a cozy afternoon treat, a dessert shared with friends, or simply satisfying that sweet craving. Enjoy them warm with a glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
