Can Cookies Be Frozen

Yes, cookies can be frozen to preserve their freshness and flavor. Here’s how:

Baked Cookies: Let them cool completely, then arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet.

Freeze until solid, then transfer them to an airtight container or freezer bag, separating layers with parchment paper.

They can be stored for up to 3 months.

Cookie Dough: Portion the dough into balls and freeze on a baking sheet. Once firm, transfer to a freezer bag.

Can Cookies Go Bad

Yes, cookies can go bad over time, though their shelf life depends on the type and how they are stored:

Homemade Cookies: Typically last 2–3 weeks at room temperature in an airtight container or up to 6 months in the freezer.

Store-Bought Cookies: Often have preservatives, giving them a longer shelf life. Check the expiration date on the packaging.
