Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
This Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe begins by melting butter partially and mixing it thoroughly with brown and white sugars, creating a smooth, sweet base. An egg and vanilla extract are added and mixed before folding in all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips for the classic cookie blend. The dough can be chilled to enhance texture and ease handling.
Cookie dough balls are placed spaced apart on parchment-lined air fryer racks, keeping the cookies separate while baking. Cooking at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-7 minutes yields cookies that are cooked through with golden tops and slightly crisp edges, yet remain soft inside. Allowing cookies to rest inside the air fryer just after baking helps them firm up and avoids breakage when removing.
This technique is ideal for baking small batches quickly without using a conventional oven and produces a classic chocolate chip cookie texture and flavor. These cookies can be enjoyed warm or stored for later snacking.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter 1 stick, unsalted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1 egg at room temperature if possible
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet
Instructions
- Melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl for 10-20 seconds or just until the butter begins to melt. Add the brown and white sugars and beat until fully combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla and beat for another 30 seconds. Stir in remaining ingredients until fully combined.
- Place in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes to overnight (optional step). Line the air fryer racks with parchment paper. Scoop 2-tablespoon dough balls into the air fryer basket, about 1.5 inches apart. You should be able to fit 2-4 depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Air Fryer at 325F degrees F for 5-7 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Allow cookies to rest 2-3 minutes in the air fryer before removing.
