Preheat the air fryer to 300 degrees.
Add box of yellow cake mix, 2 eggs, and ½ cup of canola oil to a large bowl.
Add one teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Mix until combined. This is a very kid friendly recipe, so get those little ones in the kitchen mixing and baking.
Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed.
Line your air fryer with parchment paper.
Drop tablespoonfuls of cookie dough onto the parchment paper a few inches apart. How many you will fit depends on the size of your air fryer.
Bake for 8 minutes in the air fryer or until the cookies start to turn golden brown on top.
Move the cookies on a baking rack to cool.
