I am looking for cookie recipes that can be frozen either before or after baking. I'd like to try these recipe on my Rudy Day. Later in the year, I want to be able to start stocking the freezer for the holidays, instead of baking during the craziness. Can you help?

Most cookie doughs can be frozen for easier planning and most baked cookies also freeze well!!! I will also be practicing on Rudy days also. I am actually gonna go in a different direction for March. I am going to make extra cookies for Easter and freeze the extras in separate quart size freezer bags (each bag carrying the same variety) and test them each month to see how well they will last.
So I will freeze extra doughs AND extra PREbaked cookies!!!

What a great idea, christmascreations! Please post your findings for the rest of us!! Now that all my kids can read, I have a very hard time hiding sweets in the freezer. They saw right through my doughs/cookies labeled 'Zucchini Casserole' and 'Liver and Onions' this last year :haha: I'm laughing now, but at the time, I was very frustrated to have to redo so much baking! This year, I'll be saving boxes from actual packaged food that they don't like so that I can pack baked goods and doughs in them, and then in the freezer. . .
I can't think of a single cookie or dough that didn't do well in the freezer, gllatshaw, as long as they're wrapped tightly.

Thanks ladies. That helps alot. and I think I may use your idea,
christmascreations. That would really free up some time during the holidays.

HolidayJoy have you done cookies with jams in the freezer?? Those are the only ones I think that won't do well which will leave me to just freeze the cookie dough on those til I am ready to bake them!!!
No, christmascreations, I've never tried to freeze the jam cookies before. I bet you're right, though, that they wouldn't freeze well.
