Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter room temp
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Tbsp Vanilla
  • 2 Tsp Sea Salt divided
  • 1 Egg
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 Tsp Baking Soda
  • 6 ounces chocolate chunks ½ a 12oz bag
  • 1/2 cup chopped Pretzels

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, add Butter, Granulated Sugar, Brown Sugar, 1 Tsp of Sea Salt, and Vanilla Extract.
  • Using a hand mixer beat together for a few minutes.
  • Add Flour, Baking Soda, and Egg.
  • Mix until everything is completely blended and there are no lumps.
  • Next, use a spatula to fold in the chocolate chunks and Pretzels.
  • Use a cookie scoop (about 2 tablespoons each) to form balls about 1.5 inch in diameter. Set them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Freeze for 15 minutes and then store in an air-tight freezer bag in the freezer until ready to bake.
  • If baking immediately…
  • Preheat Air Fryer to 350 degrees
  • When preheated, add a piece of parchment paper to the Air Fryer rack that is small enough to let air come in around all the sides. Add the cookie balls on top. (It seems that some Air Fryers move the cookie balls around a bit and cause them to get a bit mangled. To help stop this, try pressing your cookies a bit flat on the bottom of your cookie ball to stop them from rolling around. )
  • Depending on the size of your Air Fryer you can probably get between 5-9 cookies, at a time.
  • Place in air-fryer and bake for 8 minutes.
  • Let sit in the air-fryer for 3 minutes
  • Allow to cool on rack.
  • Sprinkle with a pinch of Sea Salt and enjoy!
