I love baking but if I can make a delicious dessert, fast, and with easy clean up, how can I resist?
The air fryer can bake almost a dozen at a time. And it's a good thing they cook so quickly, because just as fast as the air fryer makes them, they are gobbled up by the kids!
I love making air fryer desserts like this, because I get to be the best mom in the world for making fresh cookies, but the air fryer clean up is a snap!

How to make air fryer cake mix cookies
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, oil, and eggs. Mix them together until they form a thick dough.
Scoop the dough onto a piece of parchment paper, lining the basket of your air fryer.
Cook on 370 degrees Fahrenheit for about 4 minutes, until the cookies are beginning to turn golden.
Remove from the air fryer and allow them to cool.
You can use a cake mix of any flavor, but for my cookies, I used a chocolate cake mix from Betty Crocker. I also added white chips to my cookies, and they were perfect! They are the perfect chocolate, chewy and moist cookie!
FAQ's:
What happens if my cookies start to burn in the air fryer?
If your cookies are starting to brown before they are done baking, just cover them with foil and let them finish baking.
Why should I make cookies in the air fryer instead of the oven?
Making these cookies in the air fryer instead of the oven, takes less time so you will have cookies ready to eat much faster. Without the oven on for long periods of time, you are also saving energy, and keeping your kitchen from heating up in the summer.
Can I use any flavor of cake mix?
Yes! I have made every flavor of cake mix cookies. Just keep in mind, some flavors may have a bigger spread than others. So if the dough looks a little too soft or runny, add ¼ cup of flour to the batter.

These were dough-y in the center, even after cooling. But they were just beginning to brown - not something you want to see much of on a chocolate cookie.
What brand of air fryer are you using? All air fryers cook differently and you might need to leave them in longer if they are not fully cooked. If you're using a Cosori air fryer, they should come out perfectly.
