Notes
Baking Notes:
You can make this dough ahead of time. Refrigerate dough for up to two days. Freeze dough in airtight freezer bags for up to two months. You can also make the cookie balls ahead of time and freeze them from frozen. Baking Tip-The recipe calls for you to refrigerate the cookie dough for up to 30 minutes. If you are in a hurry, you can skip this step. However, the cookies won’t roll into a ball as easily. Still, they will taste delicious!Nutrition
