Cookies suitable for freezing
« on: November 11, 2011, 11:53:27 pm »
DS having his birthday party in a park. We are having a sausage sizzle but would like to make cookies and anything in advance that I can freeze and take to the park.

Ideas please
Thanks

Hally I've found that most cookies freeze quite well.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Hally, have you seen this recipe for refrigerator biscuits from MJ?

Here is another dough that can be frozen. 

I'm sure any biscuit dough could be, Chelsea has made the comment on the forum that the Fudgy Wudgy Cookie dough freezes well too.

Hi Hally

I use a recipe from the Womens Weekly cookies book called slice & bake cookies. It is a basic mixture that has 4 different variations. I do mine with mini M&Ms in it roll the dough into logs then freeze, when I need them they only take a few minutes to thaw out enough to slice then bake.

We have friends with egg allergies & this recipe has none so its great, I have also changed the butter to Nuttalex for another friends son had a dairy allergy.

Can email you the recipe if you like.

Understand the strain of heaps of birthdays all at once in our family I start them on Feb19 and my youngest ends them on April 9
with all the other in between, that's 6 birthdays in 7 weeks. So my 7 weeks of birthdays are 19/02, 21/02, 06/03, 31/03, 08/04 & 09/04!! CRAZY  :D :D

Do you want to freeze the cookies after they are baked or freeze the dough in logs to slice and bake at a later date??
