Major Christmas Cookie Help Please!

HippinskiHippinski
in Eco-Friendly Family

It is looking like I'm going to be down and out for the Holidays and I need to make up some cookie dough to keep in the freezer for the family.  It's not the holidays without homemade cookies.

So can you ladies pretty please give me your favorite cookie recipe where the dough freezer really well?  I'm going to make logs of dough that they can just slice and bake. Smile  This way Santa doesn't have to do store bought cookies and momma feels a lot better about it.

    Cream sugars and shortening. Add eggs and dry ingredients. Mix well. Place half of dough on waxed paper and shape into 2 inch loaf. Repeat with other half. Let stand in refrigerator overnight or put in freezer to bake later.

    I will make whatever usual recipe, and plop cookie dough on wax paper (on a cookie sheet), freeze, and put the plops in a ziplock.  Then you can just grab  a few plops out of the freezer, put them on a cookie sheet, and bake.  You can do that with choc chip, oatmeal, etc.

    We usually bake the first weekend of Dec - and freeze everything (spritz, gingersnaps, sandbakkelse, molasses, mint... etc).  When we want some out - we just grab out an assortment and they thaw just fine.  Fair warning - frozen cookies are tasty, which means a number of them don't make it to the "thawed" state.
