Once baked, these cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Make-Ahead/Freezer Instructions
As with many other cookie recipes, I usually make a batch of dough, then bake half and freeze the other half.
When you want a cookie, just bake the frozen dough by adding 2-4 minutes onto the cook time. These are perfect to have on hand for those nights when you just need a little something sweet!

I’ve been trying to adhere to a gluten free diet. Because of the cost involved,it’s difficult to stay gluten free. Which chocolate chip cookie recipe would yield the most cookies & maintain a grain free diet?and of course, still have the yum factor?
