Preparation
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 2
With an electric mixer, mix the softened butter and peanut butter together until thoroughly blended. Add the sugars and beat until smooth.
Step 3
Next beat in the egg, honey, vanilla, and yogurt until combined.
Step 4
Add the dry ingredients slowly and beat on low-speed just until combined. Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
Step 5
Chill dough in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes-1 hour, or place in freezer for 20 minutes.
Step 6
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 7
Once ready to bake, roll dough into 1-inch balls and place onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 9-12 minutes (depends on size of your cookie) or until cookies begin to turn a tiny golden brown and crisp up around the edges. Do not overbake!
Step 8
Remove from oven and let cool on cookie sheet for 3-5 minutes and sprinkle cookies generously with sea salt. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely or just inhale them like I do. Repeat with remaining dough.
