1/4 cup yogurt to each egg

I had a recipe for cookies that called for vanilla yogurt several years ago and they were delish! Cannot locate that one right now, but do remember it didn't have eggs in it. Was very reminiscent of sugar cookie recipes.

If you find a cookie recipe that uses sour cream, you can use the yogurt in it. My mom used to have a recipe that she made often when we were kids that she'd usually use yogurt in, since she made her own yogurt.

She fed us a LOT of yogurt when we were little. My dad was not amused as he thinks that yogurt is the most disgusting thing in the world. (she's finally got him eating frozen yogurt, but it's taken over 30 years)

Probably wouldn't taste that great but would be possible,How about try a box of lemon cookie mix and just add water or whatever it needs,that might taste better.

No you can't

No, don't do that.
