Caramel Whiskey Cookies image

A bit of yogurt replaces part of the butter in the traditional cookie, but you would never know. I get a lot of requests for these and can't make a cookie tray without them. -Priscilla Yee, Concord, California

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I was a bit disappointed with these cookies. The caramel flavor was a bit too strong for my taste and the whiskey flavor was barely noticeable.

I'm not a huge fan of whiskey, but I still really enjoyed these cookies. The caramel flavor is really dominant and the whiskey flavor is just a hint in the background.
