I live alone, I do THIS with everything. It's good when you marinade meat, bag both, freeze the meat & marinade, & when you take it out to defrost, & the liquid helps defrost by transferring cold away & warmth into meat.

I'm sorry but you totally missed it. That cookie dough would be gone in one night. The only way you're going to keep cookie dough around long enough to have it ready when guests drop by and not have it eaten by your family in the first day is to either not have a family, or find that not so sweet spot that the cookie dough is bad enough your family won't eat it, but isn't so bad that your guest's politeness overcomes their urge to throw up.

I just roll my cookie dough into a log form then wrap and freeze it , slice it while frozen with a good chefs knife , chocolate chip can be a bit of a challenge but usually can make it work.

I just started doing this same thing with buttermilk biscuits. I used the Ultimate Buttermilk Biscuit recipe from ATK, froze the uncooked dough squares, then put them in a freezer bag. You pretty much have on demand biscuits. Pop 1-2 biscuits into the toaster oven at 400F until golden brown. Did this last night and they were delicious.

I don't like to bake a full batch of cookies at any time, so I bake 1 tray and freeze the rest of the dough. It is always nice to have them handy – chocolate chip, peanut butter, oatmeal.

I always make extra cookie dough so I can do this. Plus it's cool to pop a few in the oven if you have visitors etc. But what I do is dump all the dough into a gallon freezer bag, flatten it out with a roller (usually ends up around half an inch thick), then put it in the refrigerator until it firms up. Then I stick a knife in the bag and slice the sides open so I can lift the bag off like a lid, then cut the dough into uniform squares, then slide them all in a new freezer bag. Since they were formed in a freezer bag they fit perfectly and take up very little space in the freezer – you can stack anything on top of it, like more cookie dough lol

Ashley is adorable but I fail to see how this is such a secret hack 😁

I made a bunch of holiday cookie dough ahead last year and did this portioning and storing in the freezer thing and I might have had significantly fewer cookies to give to friends than I'd planned on.
