FAQ

Can I use regular chocolate chips instead of mini?

Yes, regular chocolate chips work fine but consider chopping them smaller for more even distribution throughout the cookie pizza.

What if I don't have an air fryer pan?

Use any oven-safe skillet or round pan that fits your air fryer basket. Metal or ceramic work best.

How long will this keep?

Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days. The texture stays soft and chewy when properly stored.
