Air Fryer Cookie For One

Ingredient Notes:

“Wet” ingredients- Check your cabinets to make sure you have granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla.

“Dry” ingredients- The only dry ingredients are flour, baking soda, and salt.

The additions- This is the chocolate chips. Almost everyone uses semi-sweet, because that’s what they grew up with. That is fine if it is your favorite. But if you can be persuaded, I encourage you to try milk chocolate chips instead. They are a little sweeter, melt a little differently, and just help the recipe a little!

How to Air Fry a Cookie:

Cook for five minutes.

Recipe Tips!
If you need a cookie that you can dip into a cup of milk, you can just split the dough ball into two cookies. Cook for 4 minutes if you have two smaller cookies.

Milk chocolate chips are my favorite, but you can use peanut butter, white chocolate, or semi-sweet also!

You can add M&M’s to the cookie, or use them to replace the chocolate chips. Get creative and have fun!

Ingredients

2 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 large egg yolk
½ teaspoon vanilla
⅓ cup + 1 tablespoon flour
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
⅛ teaspoon salt
¼ cup chocolate chips.

Instructions

Preheat air fryer to 350 degrees.
Add the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar to a mixing bowl and stir with a spoon to combine.
Add the egg yolk and vanilla and stir well.
Mix in the flour, baking soda, and salt to form a dough.
Stir in the chocolate chips.
Shape the dough into a large ball and flatten lightly to form a ball of cookie dough that is about 4 inches in diameter.
Carefully place a piece of parchment paper down in the preheated air fryer basket and place the cookie dough in the center. The dough will spread a bit, so be sure that the parchment is large enough to allow space for spreading.
Air fry for 5 minutes.
Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

This recipe makes one BIG cookie. You can split the dough in half to make 2 cookies, if preferred. Cook for 4 minutes instead of 5 to keep the centers gooey.
