  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until just kissed with brown. Do not over bake.

Notes

Freezer Instructions

This cookie dough can easily be frozen. For best results, shape into balls and freeze on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer to a resealable plastic freezer bag for long term storage, up to 3 months. When ready to bake, place cookie dough onto baking sheet and let thaw while oven preheats. Bake approximately 12 to 15 minutes.

Store completely cooled cookies in an airtight container. Cookies stay fresh for 3 to 5 days.
