Alright, let’s talk about something that changed my dessert game – making cookies in an air fryer. Yeah, you heard that right. I was just as skeptical as you might be, but trust me, it’s a thing, and it’s awesome.
So, I had this pack of frozen cookie dough sitting in my freezer. It was one of those days – you know, when you just want a cookie, but you don’t want to make a whole batch or even turn on the oven. That’s when it hit me: What if I use the air fryer?
First things first, I got my air fryer ready. I didn’t want the cookies to stick or make a mess, so I cut out a piece of parchment paper. Made a few holes in it for the air to circulate, you know, just winging it. I placed the parchment in the basket, and then I took out that cookie dough.

I arranged a few pieces of the frozen dough on the parchment, making sure they weren’t too close to each other. I didn’t want them to bake into one giant cookie, as tempting as that sounded. Then, I popped the basket into the air fryer. I set it to 180 degrees (Celsius, because that’s how my air fryer rolls), and I guessed the time – 8 minutes seemed like a good start. The whole house started to smell like a bakery in no time.
- Got the air fryer ready.
- Cut parchment paper, made some holes.
- Placed frozen cookie dough on the parchment.
- Set the air fryer to 180°C for 8 minutes.
- Waited.
I checked on them a couple of times, just to make sure they weren’t burning or anything. Around the 8-minute mark, they looked perfect – golden brown, a little crispy on the edges, but still soft in the middle. I took them out and let them cool for a bit. But let’s be real, I couldn’t wait too long.
The Result
The first bite was…wow. Just wow. They were warm, gooey, and had that perfect cookie texture. Honestly, they tasted just like they came out of an oven, but it was so much faster and less of a hassle. And the cleanup? Super easy. Just throw away the parchment, and you’re good to go.
From now on, this is my go-to method for a quick cookie fix. It’s perfect for those late-night cravings or when you just need a little something sweet without all the work. Trust me, give it a try. You can thank me later!
