Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • cup (108g) oil
  • ½ cup (40g) chocolate chunks
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

Air Fryer Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl with a spoon, hand mixer, or stand mixer. 
  • The dough should be stiff enough to roll, but if needed you can add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time if the batter is too thick.
  • Roll the dough into small balls or scoop with a cookie scoop and place them in a parchment-lined air fryer basket. You will need to work in batches.
  • Air fry for 4-6 minutes at 350 degrees F or 180 degrees C. The cookies should be firm on the sides and soft in the middle, but not gooey. For firmer cookies, bake 2-3 minutes longer.
  • Cookies should be firm on the sides and slightly chewy in the middle but fully set. You do not want them gooey. You can also cook them for 2-3 minutes longer for firmer cookies.
  • Allow the cookies to cool for 3-4 minutes in the basket and then transfer to a cooling rack. 
  • Repeat the process until all the cookies are made.

Oven Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F or 190 degrees C. Combine all ingredients in a bowl with a spoon, hand mixer, or stand mixer.
  • While the dough should be stiff enough to roll, If you find your batter is too thick, add more water, about 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • Roll the dough into small balls or scoop with a cookie scoop and place on a parchment-lined baking tray.
  • Bake for 8-9 minutes at 375 degrees F / 190 degrees C or until just cracking on top.
  • Cookies should be firm on the sides and slightly chewy in the middle but fully set. You do not want them gooey. You can also cook them for 2-3 minutes longer for firmer cookies.
  • Allow the cookies to cool for 3-4 minutes on the tray and transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Different brownie mixes may produce slightly different results. 
  • Dough too wet? Add a tablespoon of flour at a time until it reaches the right consistency.
  • If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon of water at a time to get the right consistency. 
  • Place parchment or a silicone mat in the air fryer basket then add cookie dough. 
  • Use a cookie scoop to create uniform-sized cookies.
  • Leave space between the cookies as they spread slightly as they bake.
  • Since air fryer temperatures can vary, watch cookies closely the first time you make them (you don't overcook) and adjust the cooking time as needed. 
  • Storage - keep cookies in an airtight container on the counter for up to a week.
