Let cookie batter cool in refrigerator for 24 hours is supposed to reduce sweetness.

Try dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar for less sweet.

Use melted butter instead of soft butter.

Bake at higher temp and shorter time for softer cookie. Low heat and longer time makes cookies crunchy.
