Freezer Instructions
You can freeze the cookie dough. When you are ready to bake, simply place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Then bake in a 300ºF oven, for 20-23 minutes until the edges are lightly browned. There's no need to thaw the dough first.
*Original recipe called for 20-23 minutes, but ours would have been too crispy had we baked them that long.
