Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 pound unsalted butter (2 sticks), softened
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup low-fat plain yogurt (or sour cream)
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Whisk together flour and baking powder in a medium sized bowl.

  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Slowly add the flour and baking powder mixture into the egg mixture, blending well.
