When that cookie craving hits or last-minute company drops in, having frozen cookie dough on hand is perfect for a sweet treat in minutes!

Ingredients

  • Your favorite mixed cookie dough
  • Cookie Tray
  • Parchment Paper
  • Containers or plastic bags
  • Plastic wrap for log, slice and bake cookies

Instructions

Drop or rolled cookies

  1. Once your dough is all mixed up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Scoop out your individual cookies and place them closely on the paper. Do your best to get them close to one another without touching.
  3. Place the whole tray in the freezer for at least an hour or until the cookies are frozen solid.
  4. Once frozen, place the dough balls in a freezer safe container or plastic bag marking the outside of the bag with what the cookie is, the temp you cookie at and how long.

Log, slice and bake cookies

  1. Once your dough is all mixed up, get out a baking sheet, some plastic wrap or parchment paper
  2. Place the dough in a log form in the plastic wrap or parchment paper and shape into a log.
  3. Twist the ends of the plastic wrap or parchment paper and place onto the baking sheet.
  4. Place the whole tray in the freezer for at least an hour or until the logs are frozen solid.
  5. Once frozen place the logs in a freezer safe container or plastic bag marking the outside of the bag with what the cookie is, the temp you cookie at and how long.
  6. When you’re ready to bake, slice and bake away!

Notes

I would advise adding 1-3 minutes additional baking time to your frozen cookies. Don’t touch the temperature though.
