Healthier 3-Ingredient Fudgy Chocolate Cookies

After seeing what Cool Whip can do for cookies and diet soda can do for brownies and cake... why not try using Greek yogurt with cake mix and see what happens??

Oh, my friends. What a delightful low calorie treat! They are soft and fudgy and delicious! And by eliminating the oil and eggs and adding Greek yogurt instead - it cuts out 945 calories and 117 grams of fat from the entire recipe!!! Yikes!

Not sure about you, but my pants get tighter every holiday season because of all the treats I make and eat give out. So this recipe is great because it gives you a snack to satisfy the sweet tooth but won't add to your waistline. I love having some healthy alternatives for holiday snacking!!

Ingredients:

• 1 box chocolate fudge cake mix
• 1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
• 1 cup chocolate chips (I used mini)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Pour cake mix and yogurt into a large glass mixing bowl and stir with a spoon. It may appear that there is too much dry batter to blend with the yogurt but if you continue to stir, it will come together into one uniform dough. A little more cake mix will stick to the yogurt with each stir. After the dough comes together, if it really does seem too dry, add in one more tablespoon of yogurt and mix until blended.Stir in chocolate chips.
3. Take rounded tablespoons of dough and place on cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Press down gently on dough as it does not spread that much during baking. Bake for approximately 8-10 minutes. If you touch them, they will still be very soft. The cookies will firm up and set after finished cooling. Let cookies cool on the cookie sheet and firm up before removing them from the baking sheets. ENJOY!!
