Welcome to the delightful world of air fryer baking! If you love quick, easy, and delicious desserts, you’re in for a treat with Air Fryer Cool Whip Cookies.
These cookies are a fantastic twist on traditional baking, combining the light and airy texture of Cool Whip with the convenience and efficiency of an air fryer.
Ingredients:
- 1 box of cake mix (any flavor you prefer, e.g., vanilla, chocolate, strawberry)
- 1 tub (8 oz) of Cool Whip, thawed
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions:
- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Prepare the Cookie Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, Cool Whip, and egg. Mix until well combined. The dough will be sticky, which is normal.
- Form the Cookies:
- Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl.
- Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, scoop out a small amount of dough (about a tablespoon) and drop it into the powdered sugar. Roll the dough in the powdered sugar until fully coated.
- Shake off any excess powdered sugar and place the dough ball on a plate. Repeat until all the dough is used up.
- Air Fry the Cookies:
- Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
- Place the dough balls in the air fryer basket, making sure to leave space between each cookie to allow for spreading. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Air fry the cookies at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set and slightly golden around the edges.
- Cool and Serve:
- Carefully remove the cookies from the air fryer and place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your delicious Air Fryer Cool Whip Cookies!
Tips:
- Experiment with different cake mix flavors for variety.
- If you want to add extra flavor, consider adding chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit to the dough before forming the cookies.
- Make sure to preheat the air fryer for even cooking.
These cookies are great for quick desserts, parties, or just a sweet treat any time of the day. Enjoy!
