DIRECTIONS

Heat the oven to 375°F. Line 3 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, add the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar. With the paddle attachment on, beat on low speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.

Add the egg, stir to combine. With a spatula, scrape the sides of the bowl.

Add the food coloring, chocolate syrup and yogurt. Beat until blended. Scrape the sides of bowl if needed.

Gently stir in the flour, baking powder and cocoa. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

Bake, one cookie sheet at a time, in preheated oven for 8-9 minutes or until the cookies slightly spring back when touched.
