Notes

Storing Baked Cookies – Keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Freezing Cookie Dough – Portion the dough using a cookie scoop or small ice cream scoop. Place the dough balls on a wax paper-lined baking sheet and freeze until solid. Then, transfer them to a labeled freezer bag and store for up to 3 months.
Freezing Baked Cookies – Let cookies cool completely before freezing. Stack them in an airtight container with parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. Freeze for up to 3 months.
Baking from Frozen – Remove dough balls from the freezer and let them defrost for 15 minutes. Flatten slightly before baking at the same temperature.
