Freeze It For Later

These cookies are great for freezing and baking later on! In our house, we eat cookies fairly often, but usually only a small batch, enough for one or two per person.

Since most cookie recipes make a gob, when making cookie dough of any kind, I like to make the full batch – our even double it – bake a few right away, and then freeze the rest.

To do this, simply roll the dough into walnut-sized balls onto a foil- or parchment-lined baking sheet and pop in the freezer. When they’re frozen, remove the dough balls from the sheet and place in a freezer bag, squeezing out as much air as you can. Be sure to label your bag with the type of dough and baking directions.

When you’re ready to bake your frozen chewy chocolate chocolate chip cookie dough, simply place the dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 10-12 minutes.

For best results, let the frozen dough balls rest on the baking sheet to thaw for 10-15 minutes before baking. This helps them to bake more evenly.
