Notes

Store cookies in an airtight container. You can also add a slice of bread to the container to help keep them fresh.
Cookies will keep 3-5 days.
To freeze cookies
You can make the cookie dough ahead of time. After mixing the dough, you can wrap it in some plastic wrap and place it in a freezer-safe bag. When you want to make the cookies allow the dough to thaw out. Then prepare it following the rest of the directions.
Alternatively you portion out the dough balls, coating them in sprinkles and freeze them on a wax paper covered sheet pan. Once they’re frozen solid, you can store them in the freezer in a freezer safe bag.
