Storage and Reheating Tips

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. To keep them soft, add a slice of bread to the container. Reheat briefly in the microwave for 10–15 seconds for that fresh-baked texture. Cookies can also be frozen for up to 2 months and thawed at room temperature.
