MANY people love the comforting feel of baking a batch of delicious cookies at home and tucking up to eat them.<\/p>\n
And one woman decided to go on a quest to find the tastiest method – and compared how they fared when she used her oven, air fryer and microwave.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Carolina Gazal documented her vital findings on Insider, and the verdict may surprise you.<\/p>\n
To make things easier, she bought pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough mix for the job and decided to do the oven method first.<\/p>\n
Of course, the cookies were scrumptious.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cThough I'd only ever made cookies in the oven, I was still shocked at how perfect these treats were. They were soft and gooey on the inside with a crispy layer on the outside.\u201d<\/p>\n
She added that the ratio of melted chocolate to crispy outer layer was \u201cheavenly\u201d, and she loved the flat, thinner chocolate-chip cookies it created.<\/p>\n Then she whipped out her air fryer, and was a bit gutted that she was limited to making just four cookies.<\/p>\n She added the same amount of initial cookie dough into the machine and cooked them for 10 minutes at 350F.<\/p>\n The finished result was a huge success.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n She described them as \u201cchunky, golden, and ready to eat\u201d, and said: \u201cthough I typically prefer flat, thin cookies, these chunkier, crispier, more crumbly ones became my new favourite.\u201d<\/p>\n Finally she tried the microwave method, and was worried about over – or under – cooking the mixture.<\/p>\n She did it in one-minute intervals and ended up leaving them in for three minutes in total.<\/p>\n Carolina was not a huge fan, saying: \u201cOut of the three batches, these were the least appetising cookies to look at. They looked gooey, but not in a good way.<\/p>\n \u201cThe microwaved cookies were terrible so I wouldn't recommend trying this baking method.\u201d Even after an hour of cooling, they still felt gooey and chewy, like undercooked dough.\u201d<\/p>\n So what was her top choice?<\/p>\n Carolina said: \u201cThough I've always loved using an oven to bake cookies, the air fryer made the crispiest chocolate-chip treat. The golden-brown dessert stayed warm but crunchy with the perfect amount of melted chocolate.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/picture>MEAL DEAL<\/span><\/p>\n
