How to Store Sugar Cookies?
Store the sugar cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. If you are stacking them, I recommend separating the layers with parchment paper or wax paper. They hold up well on a cookie tray, just be sure to wrap it well in plastic wrap!
Can you Freeze Sugar Cookies?
Yes! They last up to two months in the freezer as long as they are stored in an airtight container or wrapped very well.
Can you Freeze Sugar Cookie Dough?
Yes! To freeze your sugar cookie dough, roll it into a ball or a log. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store it in an airtight container or freezer bag. The dough will keep for up to 2 months before you need to use it. When you are ready to bake, allow the dough to thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Make sure it reaches room temperature before you shape your cookies and bake them.
Christmas sprinkle sugar cookies are a timeless holiday treat that will bring joy to your celebrations. Enjoy!
