I was gifted with the recipe for Southern Sour Cream cookies when I got married, which happen to be my husband’s favorite cookies.

The original recipe does use sour cream but I always look for healthy swaps, so our Southern “Sour Cream” Cookies actually do not have sour cream in them.  I’ve also made several other healthy replacements to original recipe. So let’s just call them what they are; Cinnamon & Sugar Greek Yogurt Cookies.-Enjoy!-
