Air Fryer Double Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe Tips

• Do not over mix your cookie mix. Otherwise, you will end up with dense cookies. Since, as you mix, the gluten is released from the dough, overmixing leads to dry and dense cookies.
• Let them cool completely before removing them.
• The cookies will harden as they cool down, which is important since you do not want to overbake them.
• Any cake mix will work. I would recommend using either Devil’s Food Cake mix or Moist Chocolate Cake Mix with Pudding. For best results.
• Since every air fryer is slightly different, it’s important to watch your cookies as they bake.
