Get a head start on holiday baking
Just freeze cookies, then warm slowly for that freshly baked taste
It's never too early to get started on holiday baking. Most baked goods can be frozen in an airtight container and thawed as needed.
You can even warm them in the oven for that freshly baked taste. Of course, it never hurts to make some “test batches” for yourself, too!
