Ingredients
  

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)

Instructions
 

Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

      Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until fully incorporated. The dough will be thick. Fold in the chocolate chips gently.

        Shape the Cookies: Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of cookie dough and roll them into balls. Place them on a plate or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Slightly flatten each ball with your palm.

          Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for about 5 minutes.

            Air Fry the Cookies: Arrange the flattened cookie dough balls in the air fryer basket, making sure to leave enough space between each one (you may need to do this in batches). Air fry for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden and the tops look set.

              Cool Down: Once done, carefully remove the cookies from the air fryer and let them rest on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. They will continue to firm up as they cool.

                Enjoy: After cooling, enjoy your warm, gooey chocolate peanut butter cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
