- 115 gUnsalted butter, softenedMilch
- 100 gGranulated sugar
- 100 gLight brown sugar, packed
- 1Large egg
- 1 tspVanilla extract
- 180 gAll-purpose flour
- 0.5 tspBaking soda
- 1 Prise(n)Salt(to taste)
- 170 gSemi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the large egg and vanilla extract until well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure everything is incorporated.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Make sure these dry ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much during cooking.
Scoop about 1.5 tablespoons of cookie dough per cookie and roll them into balls. Place 2-4 cookie dough balls in the air fryer basket, depending on its size. Ensure there is enough space between them for air circulation.
Air fry the cookies for 6-9 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Cooking times can vary depending on your air fryer model.
Carefully remove the cookies from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving. They will firm up as they cool. Repeat with the remaining dough.
