What it is

To use, simply remove the desired number of cookie dough portions from the freezer. Arrange them on a baking sheet, leaving some space between each one as they will spread during baking. Bake in a preheated oven according to package directions until golden brown around the edges. Allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This method ensures consistent results and saves time on preparation.
