Cookie Dough Freezing Tips

Most slice-and-bake cookie dough logs can be refrigerated before baking or frozen for longer storage.

Wrap the cookie dough logs tightly in plastic wrap or place them in an airtight container to help prevent the dough from drying out in the refrigerator or freezer.

If the dough is frozen solid, let it soften slightly in the refrigerator before slicing.
