Air Fryer Crumbl Copycat Brookie Cookie Recipe

This AIR FRYER Crumbl Copycat Brookie Cookie recipe combines the best of two dessert worlds: rich, fudgy brownies and soft, chewy chocolate chip cookies. It’s the dessert you didn’t know you needed, but you’ll never be able to live without.

Ingredients

Butter: Adds that essential richness and keeps the cookies soft and moist.

Brown Sugar: Brings a deep, caramel-like sweetness and a chewy texture.

Eggs: The glue that holds everything together and adds moisture. Vanilla: The flavor booster that ties everything together.

Flour: The backbone of our dough, giving it structure.

Baking Soda and Baking Powder: These give the cookies their perfect lift and prevent them from turning into pancake cookies.

Salt: Enhances all the flavors (trust me, you need it).

Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips: The melty, chocolatey goodness in every bite. Cocoa Powder: The secret to that deep brownie flavor.

How to Make It

Start by preheating your air fryer oven to 350°F because we’re not wasting any time when cookies are involved. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until it’s smooth and dreamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl like a boss and add the eggs and vanilla. Mix until the whole thing looks like it’s ready to be eaten straight out of the bowl (don’t, though—raw eggs, y’all).

Gradually introduce the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the party. Mix until a soft dough forms, and then split it in two. Set one half aside—this is your classic cookie dough.

To the dough in the mixing bowl, add the remaining flour and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Mix until the chips are evenly distributed because we’re all about fairness here.

Switch it up! Take the dough you set aside and put it back in the bowl. Add the cocoa powder and mix on low until it’s a rich chocolate dream.

Now for the fun part! Take 1/4 cup of each dough, roll them into balls, and then smoosh them together. Make sure you’ve got a clear cookie and brownie divide—we’re going for yin and yang vibes. Flatten the dough slightly and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 12-15 minutes in the Air Fryer, then let the cookies cool until you can pick them up without burning your fingers. Or just dig in and risk it. You do you!

FAQs

Can I use milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet? Absolutely, but the cookies might be a tad sweeter. It’s all about your personal chocolate vibes.

Can I freeze the dough? Yes! Roll them into balls and freeze on a baking sheet. Once solid, pop them into a freezer bag. Bake straight from frozen—just add a couple of extra minutes.

Why is my dough sticky? Your butter might be too soft. Pop the dough in the fridge for 15-20 minutes to firm it up.

Fun Places to Serve These Sweet Treats

These cookies are the life of any party. Bring them to a kids’ birthday bash, a potluck, or even movie night. They’re also the ultimate treat for a cozy night in with a glass of milk or your favorite warm beverage.

How to Store Leftovers

If you miraculously have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Want to keep them fresh longer? Freeze them and reheat in the microwave for that fresh-out-of-the-oven feel.

Tips for Making This Recipe with Kids

Kids will love rolling the dough balls and smooshing them together. Set up a little “cookie factory” assembly line to make it extra fun. Just watch out—those little hands might sneak some dough!

Why This Recipe Works

This recipe is the perfect marriage of flavors and textures. The brownie dough brings richness and fudgy depth, while the chocolate chip dough keeps things classic and comforting. By combining the two, you get the best of both worlds in every bite. Plus, the semi-sweet chocolate chips and cocoa powder ensure you’re hitting all the chocolatey notes without going overboard.
