Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until well blended.
