It doesn't get easier than this! If you buy bread or pizza dough, all you have to do is roll and air fry!
Ingredients
- 1 pound bread dough, defrosted
- ½ cup butter, melted
- ¾ to 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 12 ounces good quality semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Amaretto liqueur (or almond extract)
Instructions
- Roll the dough into two 15-inch logs. Cut each log into 20 slices. Cut each slice in half and twist the dough halves together 3 to 4 times. Place the twisted dough on a cookie sheet, brush with melted butter and sprinkle sugar over the dough twists.
- Pre-heat the air fryer to 350ºF.
- Brush the bottom of the air fryer basket with melted butter. Air-fry the dough twists in batches. Place 8 to 12 (depending on the size of your air fryer) in the air fryer basket.
- Air-fry for 5 minutes. Turn the dough strips over and brush the other side with butter. Air-fry for an additional 3 minutes.
- While dough is cooking, make the chocolate amaretto sauce. Bring the heavy cream to a simmer over medium heat. Place the chocolate chips in a large bowl and pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate starts to melt. Then switch to a wire whisk and whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the sauce is smooth. Stir in the Amaretto. Transfer to a serving dish.
- As the batches of dough twists are complete, place them into a shallow dish. Brush with melted butter and generously coat with sugar, shaking the dish to cover both sides.
- Serve the sugared dough dippers with the warm chocolate Amaretto sauce on the side.
