In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter browns and smells nutty, about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to burn it. Remove from heat.

Pour the browned butter into a medium mixing bowl. Add the melted dark chocolate and whisk until smooth and well combined.

Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the chocolate-butter mixture. Whisk until fully incorporated and smooth.

Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips.

Line a 6-inch round air fryer safe tin with parchment paper. Preheat your air fryer to 325°F (160°C).

Using an ice cream scoop, portion out 4 equal amounts of cookie dough. Flatten each scoop slightly in your hand, place one piece of chocolate bar in the center, and then fold the dough around it to enclose the chocolate, forming a ball.

Arrange the cookie dough balls in the prepared tin, leaving a small space between them as they will spread. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate chips and flaky sea salt over the top.

Carefully place the tin into the preheated air fryer. Air fry for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is still slightly gooey. Cooking time may vary based on your air fryer model.

Remove the tin from the air fryer. Let the kookie cool in the tin for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm, directly from the tin with an ice cream scoop, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
