Can the snowball cookies be frozen? If so, how long can they be frozen,and how long to defrost? How long will they be good for?

Hi Marion, You can freeze balls of the cookie dough and just bake from frozen for an additional minute. Or you can freeze the baked cookies once they’ve cooled, just thaw to room temperature before serving. I usually store these cookies for up to 5-7 days in an airtight container on the counter. I sometimes re-roll them in powdered sugar after thawing. Have a Merry Christmas!
