Ingredients

Dough
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup chocolate chips
Optional
Flaky sea salt
Extra chocolate chips for topping

Equipment

  • Air Fryer Parchment Liners

Steps

  1. 1

    Cream butter and sugars until fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla.

  2. 2

    Mix in flour, baking soda, and salt. Fold in chocolate chips.

  3. 3

    Scoop 2-tablespoon balls onto parchment in the basket, leaving 2 inches between each.

  4. 4

    Air fry at 325°F for 7-9 minutes until edges are set but centers still look slightly underdone.

  5. 5

    Cool on parchment 5 minutes — they firm up. Top with flaky salt.

💡

Tip: Pull them when they look underdone — carryover heat finishes them perfectly. Low temperature prevents burning the edges before centers cook. Only bake 4-5 at a time; they spread.

Why Air Fry This?

  • 🌡️Concentrated heat circulation produces even browning and a crispier crust than a full-size oven.
