    Air fryer cookies from refrigerated dough

    The aroma of freshly baked cookies can fill a house with warmth and comfort. However, sometimes we don't have the time or energy to make cookie dough from scratch.

    That's where refrigerated cookie dough comes in handy. Not only is it convenient, but it can also be baked in an air fryer for a quick and delicious treat to enjoy with family. Love quick and easy dessert? You should try this sugar cookie fudge and cookie dough dip next.

    Ingredients

    • Pillsbury Refrigerated Cookie dough is what I used for this chocolate chip cookie, feel free to use your favorite brand such as Nestle tool house or even your homemade refrigerated dough.

    How long to cook refrigerated cookie dough in air fryer

    The cooking time for refrigerated cookie dough in an air fryer is typically around 6 to 8 minutes, depending on the size and thickness of the cookies.

    Since air fryer brands tend cook differently, it’s important to keep an eye on the cookies to prevent them from overcooking or burning. You can always add more time as needed.

    How to make it

    This is an overview of the recipe with step by step photos. Scroll down to the end of this post for a printable recipe card with the amount of ingredients and full recipe instructions.

    Unwrap the Cookie dough, transfer the dough cubes into the air fryer basket evenly spaced as they will spread as you bake them.

    Bake at 350°F (I80°C) for 6 to 8 mins. Pull out the air fryer basket and place on the counter. Let cookies cool in the basket for 8 mins before lifting out with a cookie spatula.

    What to serve with these air fryer cookies

    These air fryer cookies can be served on its own, dipped in melted chocolate, filled with frosting or just dunk it in a glass of milk, hot chocolate, coffee or tea.

    How to store

    These cookies can be stored in an air tight container for up to 5 days. Ensure you let them cool completely on a cooling rack before storing.

    Air frying Tips

    • Use parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking to the air fryer basket.
    • You can cook these straight from the refrigerator no need to let it come to room temperature
    • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket - leave some space between the cookies for even cooking.
    • Check the cookies frequently during cooking to prevent over-browning.
    • Adjust the cooking time and temperature as needed depending on your air fryer's model and brand.
