Air Fryer Cookies (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ For the Cookies

01 - 1/2 cup brown sugar, tightly packed
02 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
03 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
04 - 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, unsalted
05 - 1 egg, preferably at room temp
06 - 1 1/2 cups regular flour
07 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
08 - 1 teaspoon baking soda
09 - 1 cup chocolate chips, semi-sweet

# Instructions:

01 - Pop the butter into a microwavable bowl and warm it up for 10-20 seconds, just enough to start melting. Throw in the brown and white sugars, then mix until smooth. Crack in the egg and mix it in with the vanilla for another half-minute. Stir the flour, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips in, blending everything well.
02 - Stick the dough in the fridge for anywhere from 30 minutes to overnight if you want. It’s optional but helps stop them from spreading too much later on.
03 - Grab some parchment paper and place it on the air fryer racks. Scoop two tablespoons of dough for each ball, leaving about an inch and a half between them. Depending on the size of your fryer, you’ll probably fit 2-4 cookies in one go.
04 - Bake cookies at 325°F for about 5 to 7 minutes, just until they look golden and done. Let them cool right in the fryer for another 2 to 3 minutes before taking them out.
05 - Repeat the process until all the dough’s used up and you’ve baked every cookie.

# Notes:

01 - Don’t worry if cookies seem soft when they come out of the air fryer—they’ll get firmer once they cool down.
