Cookies and Cream Cookies
Personally, I like to use unsalted butter and add my own salt so I can better control the amount that is added. You can use whichever you prefer but note, if you use salted butter, omit the additional salt called for in the recipe.
Yes, you can! Allow the baked cookies to cool completely. Place the cookies in a single layer on a baking sheet and place it in the freezer. Once the cookies are frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe covered container or zip-top bag. Be sure to label and date it. For best results, be sure tho use them within 4 weeks.
A cookie scoop or use a tablespoon measuring spoon!
A shiny aluminum pan works best!
