1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups (180g) all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (175g) chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough:
- Cream butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

- Preheat Air Fryer:
- Set Air Fryer to 320°F (160°C) and preheat for 3-5 minutes.
- Shape the Cookies:
- Line Air Fryer basket with parchment paper or lightly grease. Scoop tablespoon-sized dough balls, roll, and flatten slightly. Space them apart in the basket.
- Cook the Cookies:

- Cool and Serve:
- Transfer cookies to a cooling rack. Serve warm for the best taste.
Notes
For crispier cookies, cook an extra 1-2 minutes.
Add nuts, coconut, or M&Ms for variation.
Freeze dough balls for later use—air fry directly from frozen with extra cook time.
