Freezing Cookie Dough (little tip for the holiday bakers)

Freezing Cookie Dough

 

Cookie dough will freeze well for 4 to 6 weeks. Rolls of dough should be sealed

tightly in plastic wrap (chill in refrigerator first before freezing). Other

kinds of dough should be stored in airtight containers. Drop cookies (unbaked)

may be frozen on cookie sheets and transferred to freezer bags. Let stand at

room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking.

Don't try to freeze soft meringue-type cookie dough. Chocolate chip, brownies,

peanut butter, and sugar cookie dough (or anything similar) freezes well. Let

the dough defrost in the refrigerator (about 2-3 hours). Make sure to label the

container with the date and type of cookie dough.
