How to Freeze Cookie Dough
Freezing cookie dough is a great idea if you have excess cookie dough or if you want to stash some cookie dough away so you can have a warm cookie at any moment. Here is the ONLY way I freeze cookie dough.
Materials
- 1 batch cookie dough
- cookie sheet
- parchment paper or silicone baking mat
- gallon sized zip top bag
- permanent marker
Instructions
- Shape the dough into balls or drop by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about an hour, or until the dough balls are firm.
- Transfer the frozen dough balls to an airtight container or resealable plastic bag.
- Label the container or bag with the type of cookie and the date.Freeze the dough for up to 3 months.
