Want to know why a Traeger is the most versatile outdoor cooking solution? Because it lets you bake soft, homemade chocolate chip cookies like a seasoned baker. Make sure to keep the cookies mounded up high, as this will result in a chewy, gooey center, with a perfectly cooked exterior.

Line a two half sheet trays with parchment paper and using a 6 oz scoop, portion the cookie dough out placing 4 cookies on each sheet tray. Keep them mounded up high as this will result in a chewy, doughy center but cooked exterior. Sprinkle the top with additional sea salt, if desired.

Place the sheet trays directly on the grill grate and bake for 20-25 minutes until the outside is lightly browned. The cookies will look a little underdone (exterior will be lightly browned, but center will still look gooey) which is what you’re shooting for.
