Lactation Cookies Question...

I just googled a recipe for lactation cookies, and it calls for Brewers Yeast. Is that something that I could find at a natural food store?

I was thinking of making some in the coming weeks, and obviously won't need them for a little while after that. Is is okay to freeze the cookies?

    Whole Foods has it. I've seen it at our local one, anyway.

    I don't know about freezing. I don't see why not: the brewer's east is the key ingredient for lactation, but it's dead by the time you finish baking, so freezing I don't think would hurt the potency any further.

    I make them ALL THE TIME. A few hints. I more than double the flax and brewers yeast.

    And I buy both at Nob Hill

    Where are you located in Sac?  I have a ton brewers yeast left over from when I made the cookies last year and I surely won't need it for a while!  It was $18 and I got it at Raley's.  Let me know if you're interested and I'll check the expiration date.  I made a huuuge batch, then rolled it in 2" diameter rolls wrapped in parchment paper.  Then I cut sticks the width of freezer bags and froze them.  That way I was able to grab out a stick, cut into slices and make small, fresh batches :)

    Here's mine: https://gnluv.wordpress.com/2009/02/08/yum-cookies/

    I added nuts & choc. chips.

    Sometimes, I made brownie mix and then dumped the cookie dough in the middle too. Ugh, it tasted goooooood!
