Insider Tips

  • Classic chocolate chip cookies with a crunch!
  • Chilled dough is easier to handle and holds its shape better.
  • Cookie dough can be stored in the refrigerator up to 3 days or frozen up to 8 weeks. Baked cookies can be frozen up to 4 months.
  • Make holiday baking easier: do it in advance – Scoop and freeze cookie dough balls, then bake them off when the next cookie emergency arises.
