Tips for Perfect Air Fryer Cookies:
- Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much during air frying, resulting in a thicker, chewier cookie.
- Don’t Overcrowd: Cook the cookies in batches to ensure they have enough space to spread and cook evenly.
- Watch Closely: Air fryers can vary in cooking times, so keep an eye on your cookies to prevent overcooking. They may need slightly more or less time depending on your air fryer model.
- Adjust Temperature if Needed: If your cookies are browning too quickly, lower the temperature by 10-20 degrees and extend the cooking time slightly.
- Cool in Basket: Letting the cookies cool in the basket for a few minutes helps them set and prevents them from breaking apart when transferring to a wire rack.
