PRO TIPS for the Best Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
- Room temperature ingredients, especially unsalted butter and a large egg, help ensure even mixing.
- Use air fryer parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking to the basket. Trust me, you don’t want to skip this step. If using a baking tray, this can be omitted.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket; bake 3-4 cookie dough balls in small batches for even cooking.
- Leave the cookies on the parchment paper for 5 – 10 minutes to cool before removing them from the air fryer basket. This allows the cookies to solidify properly.
- Depending on your preference, experiment with different sizes using a cookie scoop for smaller or larger cookies.
- Add a vanilla extract or mix milk chocolate chips and chunks for an extra flavor boost.

Cooking Methods Apart from the Air Fryer
Apart from air frying, you can also bake cookies in a traditional oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes. This method is better for baking a whole batch of cookies at once. While air frying is excellent for small batches and quick results, an oven provides more even cooking for larger quantities.
