Suggestions

  • Alternative Ingredients: Swap chocolate chips for white chocolate, peanut butter chips, or nuts.
  • Garnishing Options: Drizzle with chocolate syrup or sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt for that gourmet touch.
  • Cooking Tips: For a gooey center, slightly undercook and let it set; for a crispy texture, air fry a bit longer.
